[QUOTE="Farmer Keith, post: 7385489, member: 16808"] There is a downside to all the “progress” that’s been made in terms of confirmation within the breed, 25 years ago every dairy farm going had a limo bull now I can only think of two local to me that still use one. If i was breeding Limousins this would be a big concern to me given the continued contraction of the national suckler herd and the growth of dairy beef, of which nearly all will be either AA or BB. The most expensive stock should have reduced gestation lengths, improved calving ease and improved locomotion not double muscling as their best traits.... however this does not look good in the show ring and there lies the problem.
