Pen C Nichols Best SX-1 Bulls What is a Nichols Hybrid Bull? Nichols Hybrids are the result of crossing two Registerd Purebred parents to combine the best traits of two breeds. Their predicted EPDs are as accurate as purebreds. A Nichols Hybrid bull s heterois (cross bred vigor) is transmitted to his offspring. Plus, his calves are more uniform than back crossing purebreds. Virtually all poultry, swine, and grain genetics are the result of systematic composite breeding.

USDA Meat Animal Research Center Nichols Hybrids and Composites are the result of crossing two or more pure lines in specific crosses to maximize the best traits of the grandparent lines. All Nichols lines are black and polled. A Composite bull s heterois (cross bred vigor) is transmitted to his offspring. Plus, his calves are more uniform in type, performance, and carcass characteristics than back crossing purebreds.
