Cattle of the same breed which have a parent of a different lineage or blood-line (be it a dam or a sire) than the lineage that is being bred on that ranch. For example, a ranch may have a closed-breeding program of a blood line of Line One Hereford cattle. When he wants to outcross some of his cows, he will buy a bull that does not have the Line One lineage, but instead will go for a bull that has, for instance, a Durango line instead so that the resulting offspring have Durango-Line One genetics.

**Note: Line One and Durango are bloodlines that do exist in the Hereford breeding industry. They are just used as examples on here.

What is outcross breeding?

Outcross breeding is the practice of introducing a new bloodline into a breed. It is primarily done in the early process of developing a breed. One common example was of breeding a herding dog such as a collie or shepherd into a working dog line to enhance their protective qualities. Outcross breeding is commonly confused with cross-breeding to develop a new type of dog. No established breed outcrosses now.
