[QUOTE="BRG, post: 178624, member: 2397"] SEC, I think Cypress meant that by single trait selecting (this would be color) you will always loose something. For example, when these other breeds decided to go black, several great red bulls and females were passed up because they weren't black. Several bulls that were were used were just so so in quality, but they were black, so they lost some performance, or calving ease or something, only because they single selected for color. [/QUOTE]
