[QUOTE="True Grit Farms, post: 1417329, member: 24694"] I just try and do what I feel is right for the situation. I'm going to do my best to make sure that the phenotype is correct on the cattle that I sell as seedstock. Genomic testing and EPD'S don't mean anything if the animal has a bad udder or wrong color, or color in the wrong spots. And to make matters worse, lots of times a bad udder won't show up till just before - after the first calf. I usually cull for bad udders, and the wrong color goes into my commercial or recip herd. My cull rate is 70-80% on seedstock. But I don't want to sell anything off the farm anymore. [/QUOTE]
