I like polled simply because dehorning is nasty and a big pain in the @$$! In the dairy business that I have been involved with, I can't tell a difference in temper. But, I admit, I can't contribute about carcasses, birthing, etc. when you compare the two. Hot iron dehorning sucks for the...

Beef 11, I like, no, love your post. Not only did it give me a good laugh, but it reinforces my ideas on the absurdities our society is willing to go to to not be "offensive." Your post was nothing short of brilliant!

Basically, I took a look at the bull, formulated my opinion and then read all the other posts. Nothing really original in my opininon, but here goes. Nice color, good topline, great legs-nice and thick, good scrotal set-up. About the only thing I would be concerned about is his head. It's a...

I think that is a really nice looking bull.

I spent about an hour trying to round up a zebu week before last. My good mount, God rest her soul, was of course not around so I had to be a groundling. I tried to rope him, but he had been down that road before, obviously, and avoided it. I had a good hoof catch on him and doggone it, he...

Yes, we sure do -- on many fronts!

Brandonm2, I love horses. But I also know enough about them to agree with you.

Good, no very good point, blk mule. It seems that most of the folks who are opposed to it don't know the REAL story. I thank you for telling the REAL story. Maybe the answer is USDA inspection to make sure that the transportation and slaughter is as humane as possible...

I'm curoius to see what you cattlemen think about HR 503 to ban horse slaughter. The thought of a perfectly good filly being sent to slaughter repulses me, but I also think that banning horse slaughter will be bad for horses, ultimately. I am with an equine rescue league, and I see that there...

Interesting, the comment on the Santa 'truds and the King ranch.

I learned alot from those comments. Thanks. I'm no expert but I have heard from more than one experienced person that Limis TEND to have more attitude problem than some other breeds like herfs and angus. Not trying to bash a breed here! Any comments from experienced Limi owners, or maybe...

I like the first calf alot. Mom looks really good too.

Despite what 3MR says, I can tell a HUGE difference, and so can other people I've talked to around theses parts. Maybe 3MR's knowledge applies to HIS part of the country, or maybe he's able to inherently know what beef tastes like whether in Colorado, Califorina or Carolina. But he can put two...

I don't own any cattle right now. So, to quote Baxter Black I'm "all hat and no cattle." I have worked with Herefords in the past quite a bit and have found them fairly easy to handle and pretty robust. We shop at Lowe's food and I prefer their certified Hereford to their Black Angus beef...

I think he looks great. May just be the pic, but he seems to have that confident "air" about him. You are definitely NOT blind in my opinion!
