You don't get hybrid vigor and genetic consistency from breeds that have added other breeds to the their cattle ultimately making them crossbreeds.[/quote] [b]Yes but also alot of popular angus breeders do the same thing wether chasing the next greatest thing or just trying to get more growth.I think if seedstock producers would breed cattle a little tighter the comm guy could take advantage of more of the hydrid vigor.The problem with this is most folks aways wan't to buy the biggest bull[/b].[/quote] That is exactly what we do with our Red Polls :D :D [/QUOTE]
