[QUOTE="JustSimmental, post: 941720, member: 14624"] After 10 generations of PBSM breeding even if you used an Angus Red or Black in 1972 you have an individual then that is 99.99999999999999 % SM or what we refer to as PBSM. Actually the first crosses were using Red Angus for several reasons-- one being to turn them a solid color and the other was to rid them of the Diluter gene which RA doesnt possess. The FB SImm is a good heritage breed, but really doesnt work in todays marketplace --especially as we trend more toward quality pounds over quantity pounds. I[b]f you bred a FB Simm to an Angus you would then have a Simm Angus at 50% FB Simm and 50% Angus-- << this is where your confusion lies. No one ever considered a breeding of a FB SM to a PB AN to get a PBSM. [/b] If you bred a FB SM to a PB AN then you have a 50/50 and you would then have to breed to a PBSM to make it a 3/4 SM etc etc etc until you had what we call a PBSM. Then you take this individual the PBSM and cross it with a PBAN to make the 50/50 Simm Angus F 1. Hope this clears up your confusion about PBSM and PBAN F1 [/QUOTE]
