Unlike other testing this is not done on scale and there is no comparison to other breeds. It\u2019s either there or not there. <br>I truly believe that the tenderness of the beef is correlated to milk and that is sooo important in our dual purpose breed.  We are working with them  to prove this theory!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I have included what the cards look like, the paperwork that is needed\u2026note it is very little.  You can pay on line or send in a check.  It is better for the lab if you pay with a check, so that they don\u2019t loose the processing fee, but they are very accommodating.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"768\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/irishdextercattlemen.com\/staging\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/IMG_7966-768x1024.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-7908\" srcset=\"https:\/\/irishdextercattlemen.com\/staging\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/IMG_7966-768x1024.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/irishdextercattlemen.com\/staging\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/IMG_7966-225x300.jpeg 225w, https:\/\/irishdextercattlemen.com\/staging\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/IMG_7966-1152x1536.jpeg 1152w, https:\/\/irishdextercattlemen.com\/staging\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/IMG_7966-48x64.jpeg 48w, https:\/\/irishdextercattlemen.com\/staging\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/IMG_7966.jpeg 1440w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 768px) 100vw, 768px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"768\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/irishdextercattlemen.com\/staging\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/IMG_7967-768x1024.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-7909\" srcset=\"https:\/\/irishdextercattlemen.com\/staging\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/IMG_7967-768x1024.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/irishdextercattlemen.com\/staging\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/IMG_7967-225x300.jpeg 225w, https:\/\/irishdextercattlemen.com\/staging\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/IMG_7967-1152x1536.jpeg 1152w, https:\/\/irishdextercattlemen.com\/staging\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/IMG_7967-48x64.jpeg 48w, https:\/\/irishdextercattlemen.com\/staging\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/IMG_7967.jpeg 1440w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 768px) 100vw, 768px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Here is a video that Nancy Bowers, Lonestar Ranch did on blood testing one her Dexters.
