[QUOTE="darcelina4, post: 1653940, member: 27059"] We have decided to breed more shorthorns. But unlike most of you, see want the flashier. We do best selling halter broke pet cows. People who want a pet cow want flashy. This year we also started selling beef by the half.we are eating my daughter's show steer. He was a shorthorn beefmaster. Great meat. We will market a few to lower level 4h kids but mostly raising to sell as pets and meat. We bought a white bull calf we are raising. Hoping to get some blue roan from out black cattle. I'm also going to look into tanning the hides of the flashy meat makers. We had started going towards red Angus but found they are harder to well here in Oklahoma. I have a great reg. Red Angus heifer bull for sale and haven't gotten much interest I might keep him until late summer to breed heifers. Calving heifers would be the downside to shorthorns I had a bull 4 years ago that was a 68 pound calf. My jerseys had 77 and 81 pound calves easily. I have 2 of those heifers. They don't look half dairy and neither do their calves [/QUOTE]
