I have been pestered by this thought for some time and am wondering if anyone would help me figure this out. In denver Ree Hights was listed as beein a Who on a Full Flush, this was later amended to him being out of a Heatwave dam. Also Red Rock was originally listed as being a Heatseeker and now is listed as a heatwave. I would imagine when you sell or buy a bull you would make sure who he is out of...wouldnt you?

When Rea Heights was listed as being WMW X Full Flush and was a carrier, Red Flag, but of coarse it is possible on the Dam's bottom side somewhere. BTW, that is what Phil was told when he bought the bull,so it wasn't him that put it out there knowingly.

Red Rock was sold to them as a Heat Seeker, but after DNA testing was found to be a Heat Wave.

And then Ree Heights was originally a Who X Flush X Heat Seeker so I thought that the TH came from a HS granddam.  But at any rate, I don't think anyone was trying to do anything unethical.

Bingo kfacres (maybe not most, but some anyway).... which is why I like DNA test on ALL cattle regardless of pedigree. Just my crazy little quirk. Call me silly

by dna test, do you mean dna verify parentage?
