On another cattle website where I am banned because of my E mail name, according to the administrator, there is a thread called" at what point do you say enough". In all seriousness what are the complaints about the American Hereford Association? There is no real reason given that I can fathom. I am not trying to start something but I do want to know and if you want to delete this thread so be it. Is this just in the Hereford breed or is there in fighting in all breeds? Is there this going on between red and black Angus? I have met wonderful Hereford people and then I have met Hereford breeders who at a cattle function told everyone that 80% of Herefords were worthless. Here is a quote from that forum.
"Tim.... Your last two clues have described what I have seen in at least half of the Polled Hereford cattle I have seen sell this spring. They have taken what was left after the frame race and bred them right into the ground.... Short squatty dinks that peckers drag in the cheatgrass, too fat to travel for feed or water on the range. Hell they don't have enough feet and legs under them to travel to feed and water under pivot irrigation. Many of them do not have enough legs and have too many guts to mount a cow and get her bred. Yes it is biting all Hereford cattle breeders right square in the butt!!!!... NUFF SAID...

Thank you and if this post is deleted I will understand.
