Maybe we are all going "nuts" but you have a valid point Eric, but do you not agree that the animals brought in as "wild type" typically do not fit the "standard"??

We search for "peaks" or "pinched saddles" and that takes a front seat to color and contrast instead of enjoying our BCC of the past...which were the true examples of BCC??

I am old school in a new class, but I know what books I choose to read! Just my opinion!!

Do you remember the day when you had a "Peruvian" and no one asked if it was "pucallpa" or "Iquitos" and when you answered it affected your sale, whether or not it eas a fine animal?

Those days are long gone...maybe for the best, and will require change on our part...

Thanks Eric

Best wishes to you and yours.

Joel
