[QUOTE="pleasantpasturesbeef, post: 1744591, member: 42506"] I've been trying to read about Highlanders recently, and it seems that they are a good hardy/rugged cows, and good at raising their young. I find that attractive, since my access to a barn is very limited if not unavailable. I got to thinking that these cows are just too stinkin cute, since every week I go passed a farm that has several, but I wanted to figure out if they would even work with the herd I've got. So what do y'all think: I want to get my AI tech to order me a Highlander straw to breed back my Angus/Hereford/whatever-else-she-is Mama cow that gave birth last month. She did an excellent job birthing her first. I'll need to order soon within the next few weeks, I guess, but would that even work? I had been thinking that I needed to purchase a bred highlander cow, but then I thought since it's time to breed my cow back next month, why couldn't I try just breeding her with a Highlander?😂 I'll also have a Baldy ready to breed back around November, so I could wait till then. Also....any opinion on the long horns...? Think that would be a problem in a heard with a bunch of polled beef cows? [/QUOTE]
