Thanks for that post Knabe ! There was an article about that in Shorthorn Country a few years back. I can't remember the exact percentage but the article stated that any purebred Maine was at least a certain % shorthorn, maybe 3/8 or 5/8, I can't remember for sure.
Clifflem, I was mainly referring to the Trump lines since they are so prominent today. Thanks for the info on the older cattle.
Linnettejane, There is a chart that the SH Assn. puts out that shows how to breed them up to purebred status.
