Thanks for your update.

''Barn blind'' is the term used in my area. If you see them every day they are always normal.

The biggest drawback is they grow slow and end up smaller. Not something that you can grow on grass then finish for 90 days.

Those calves will make good beef.

The ''off color'' in that report is not uncommon. In my part of the country that would be line-back, roan, spots, white on the feet and legs ect.

Read the specs and it will specify where the white can be located.

Black cattle do not always bring more.CAB is not 100% of the fed cattle market. Color does not change quality. CAB mkts beef not cattle.

You can not tell the buyers what to buy. If you produce cattle you have to have buyers That could be sale yards, individual locals, facebook, or process them and sell the meat.. You just need to honestly find what works best. Niche markets can be a goldmine but it doesn't take many producers to...

There is money to be made on all classes of cattle. The main thing to remember is that trends are covering large areas and sales are usually local. I can buy all of the cattle that would make money in other areas and still go broke.

Some think that they have been banned and send in the troops to protest. They got a time out and thought they were prosecuted. Sounds like a bunch of grade-school kids at times.:eek:
