No, not if you know the breeding history of her lineage and her parent's lineage and so on and so forth. Linebreeding can only be done in those herds that are purebred and that you know the pedigree history of, otherwise you will get calves that are either smaller and unthrifty, or get calves that have genetic abnormalities that could be fatal. Otherwise, if she is one animal that you have no idea what kind of background she has or what breed[s] she is, you better get her bred to an unrelated bull.
