good point. but how easy is it to cross infections? if you annually vaccinate your breeding cows it should help...I know it won;t stop it 100% and there may be some diseases you can't vaccinate against... just curious, when dry lotted what does the average cow eat weighing about 1000-1200lbs. (...

great, thank you all for the advice. Is there any breeders on here from Oregon that know where to find some nice (lower priced) black cows? They can be a cross. Thank you!

oooooo.....just about right on, she is a registered ABBI (American Bucking Bull Inc.) cow. She has plummer blood, along with Bodacious and Gunslinger. Good guess.

thanks!

Thank you, yes that is for sure...it is the same way with the bucking bull industry(except those are all registered cattle) quality is always the best way to go. Now as long are you are extremely thorough in your examinations of an animal and know what to look for( as far as bad and good...

Hello, I am also new on here. Here is my favorite cow out of my herd...She IS registered...can you guess what breed??

oh forgot to say, so another of my ideas was what about buying good quality (as described by Dun above) cows that are black or dark coated of varying breeds. Long as they are in good health, good condition and have good maternal instincts...then leasing a reg. bull (like an angus) or buying a...

what about gerts and black angus....why red? (just curious...I am new to this! :) black seems to be the popular color around here from what I saw yeaterday, as well as a lot of other areas....

Thanks, that clarifies things a little more... I made it out to the local sale barn today, just to see what was out there and what the prices were. most of thecattle I saw go through were deffinitely culls. the price was from .50(a small little sickly calf) to about .95 or .96 was the highest I...

well I currently raise bucking bulls. so yeah I would say I have some experience, especially around the high headed, hot tempered cattle. I currently have 10 head of bucking stock 5 head of horses and 4 head of sheep(hopefully the sheep will soon be gone lol) right now I live on 6 acres. my...

okay may be a stupid question but what is high quality to you... confirmation, milking ability, muscling, EPD, is registered cow/bull a high quality specification....or would I be alright to buy some good looking, good producing cross cattle? what about foundation cows... black baldies, santa...

Heat tollerance isn't a concern here, do they make a breed that is boyant? lol we get a ton of rain! I've gone to some sale barns/auctions. Most are angus crosses, some charolias crosses, most are hard to tell. A lot of culls I haven't even gone to an actual breed sale yet. But the Buhcanans...

Thank you that is very helpful. how about black baldies or grade angus cows with a registered angus bull. Or maybe even start out with hereford cows with an angus to produce black baldies...I really like brindle colored cows with a beefmaster build (brahman influenced) but not sure how they...

I was just looking at Registered vs. commercial...what is most popular. you can sell for show, club calves, meat with registered stock...you can sell for meat and (club calves?? ) with grade commercial stock...such as black baldy cross. which is easier to sell in the North Western states?

Not really, just looking to learn more and find a place I can work for board.

Is there anyone out there in Oregon that would consider an internship? Thank you

Thank you, I will do my homework and see what I can learn....

Looking to get started. I live in a wet moderate climate. I was thinking of raising black baldies and then putting an angus back on them...not sure though what I would like to do. Any suggestions? Thanks
