[QUOTE="cmf1, post: 736288, member: 6681"] That's what I know to be the case around here too...heavy docking at the sale barn. But the thing is I have no interest in selling anything at the sale barn. Down here in La., to me, that's like having a fire sale on non damaged first run goods. I have been fortunate enough and small enough to sell my production for more realistic prices, and I don't think my customer base will mind the stripe. Once it is vacuum sealed. But if I ever get in a bind, I know it will hurt having to dump them there. I'm really more interested in longevity, temperment, milking, feed efficiency, heat tolerance, and such as that. First hand knowledge of beef quality as well? Their assoc. touts it highly. If I did get any, I would be crossing them with another british, so no heterosis, but it would give me another pool of females to select from as the MG's are not plentiful around me. It's not something that needs to be done, but if it makes momma happy, and don't sting too much,...well... [/QUOTE]
