[QUOTE="BC, post: 1316748, member: 67"] The solid color is easier to market the calves. When you send a load of stock calves to a customer, the spotted and odd colored calves stick out like a sore thumb. The customer tends to hone in on them picking them apart. If the cattle have solid color they are harder to pick apart or find fault in them. I am guessing that the reason for preferring red is you get less paints and spots with that color pattern. As to disposition, could you provide a link to the videos you were referring. I went to the Cattle In Motion site and looked at a Beefmaster bull sale coming up and did not see anything that looked out of ordinary. [/QUOTE]
