[QUOTE="elkwc, post: 1821620, member: 22295"] We have mainly Black cows. Mainly Angus with a little Gelbveigh and Simmi in them. Our buyers don’t want more than 25% Continental. We use some Hereford bulls. All but one has been horned. The one polled bull lasted one year. It is easier for me too find genetic variation in Horned Hereford cattle than it is in Anguss and Polled Herefords. I’m looking at a polled yearling now but he is sired by a horned L1 sire. We get a few red calves but they sell right on the groups of black calves. We have around a half dozen Hereford cows we use to raise baldies and also a few to try to raise bulls to use. The Herefords we have have plenty of growth and feed well. I sold an Angus bull sired by top Angus carcass genetics. Used him clean up in heifers. His calves were sorry. Never pulled one though. Looked like Black Wagyu’s. We have quit using Continental breeds. Using Hereford and Angus now. We don’t get docked here on a good one like many say they do. [/QUOTE]
