[QUOTE="Anonymous, post: 5056"] In most all breeds you have nuts cases and you have calm cattle. I would rank the majority of Red Angus and most blk Angus to be second to Herefords in calmness, docility, etc. They won;t be as prone to mug you for treats as Herefords and generally won't folow you around like a dog. Our angus are all higher on the pecking order then the Herefords or baldies. Dispersal sales are a good source of some very good genetics, some herds sell off all their cows over a certain age each year. If a cow has reached 6 or 7 years of age in most of these herds you can bet she's a pretty darn good cow. She may not be as good as their 2 or 3 year olds, but she must have something going for her to have stayed around that long. Whatever you do, get the best genetics you can afford, then breed via AI to the top bulls. You can make good prograss in a relatively short time this way. dun > I was wondering if anyone can tell > me about the Angus personality?? I > am only familiar with raising > Herefords.
