[QUOTE="MikeC, post: 426087, member: 1604"] I understand the theory of heterosis and am convinced of it's importance. I see what you are saying now........................ But you said "ANY" purebred in your first statement. I have been using gain and performance as a plan for several years. You might say that "Crossbreds" will USUALLY outperform the purebreds, but not "ANY" purebred. I weaned & weighed a 920 lb calf yesterday that was born Jan 10 of this year. No creep. Mama only. That's a 4.10 WDA. Will "ANY" crossbred top that? Plus, you might not have tried the "Right" purebreds. ;-) [/QUOTE]
