A fad is like the hulahoop or pet rock, it doesn;t go on for years and years.



If black Angus and red Angus have the same performance, then optimum production could be globally half red and half black. But that isn't the case is it? Does that mean black Angus is a better performer than red Angus? I don't think so. Do you?

:lol2: It means that it's much easier to get a better bull in a black angus than a red because of the much larger number of black angus bulls available for purchase.

Well if you use that reasoning, then it's also much easier to get a lousy bull in a black angus than a red. ;-)

Probably true for someone that's a poor judge of bulls. But, if you assume as HS suggested that they're overall equal in performance, the odds would be equal! :D
