[QUOTE="alexfarms, post: 613607, member: 8677"] I was going to look up the pedigree, but the AHA database is "currently unavailable", which means new epds will be out soon. The Trask cattle were a polled line of Herefords. They descended from a son of Mossy Plato 26 and were linebred to him. The King Dominos and the Victor Dominos also descended from a son and grandson of Mossy Plato 26 and were linebred to that descendent. Trask did bring in some horned genetics from time to time, which made the line attractive to some of the Horned Hereford breeders. A BIG ASSET TO THE TRASK CATTLE WAS HE RAN THEM ON FESCUE AND THEY WERE GENETICALLY SELECTED TO RESIST FESCUE POISONING. In late years Trask also brought in some Prospectors through the Felton cattle. You would have to do a search on TRASK 4013's pedigree to see what was brought in on this particular bull. Some of the Trask bulls were pretty solidly linebred to the Mossy Plato 26 son, and I can't remember that bulls name.....may have been a Rupert or something. I also understand that Trask was a bit of a character, which isn't unusual for men who have chosen a path different from most others. [/QUOTE]
