[QUOTE="Ky hills, post: 1627660, member: 24816"] I don’t have any first hand knowledge with White Parks or British Whites so I can’t advise one way or the other. Years ago I remember seeing a White Park bull advertised in a semen catalog. On a rare occasion would see an animal matching that description sold at a stockyards and they were always referred to as White Park, I had never heard of a British White till just very recently on this forum. Was sitting behind an order buyer at a sale on day and a couple calves came in about 600 lbs a black one and a White Park marked calf. The buyer said split them he told the person next to him that any of the White Parks he had seen were bad tempered. Sure enough when that calf came back in the ring it was aggressive. He said see I told you it would be. Don’t know if that’s true of the majority or not but would be something to look into before getting involved with the breed. Also those kind are docked pretty heavy at the stockyards, so cull animals would sell pretty disappointingly. I know about the dock we have some Herefords. [/QUOTE]
