[QUOTE="okiecowpoke, post: 176641, member: 3370"] You guys are partially correct. CHB is a phenotypic (visual)spec that allows cattle with 51% white face regardless of coat color. CAB is phenotypic as well with 51% black hide. Both have some other criteria as well that has already been discussed. CHB is a Select product while CAB is a upper 2/3 Choice product. While red cattle are not allowed into CAB, there are other "Angus" product lines that documented Red Angus cattle will fit such as Cargil's (Excel) Sterling Silver and Angus Pride as well as Meyer's program. USDA ruled that any cattle that fit the Red Angus Association's tagging program are eligible for "Angus" product lines, even if they specify Black Angus. Red cattle are eligible for any program, it's just up to the program if they let them in or not. The Red Angus tag guarantees 50% Red Angus genetics. It has been around longer (10+ years) than any of the other programs. This program has more teeth than a phenotypic spec since a white faced black Simmental would qualify for both CAB and CHB but is neither Hereford or Angus. [/QUOTE]
