[QUOTE="Son of Butch, post: 1091633, member: 14585"] Just thought this might be of interest to Grass Fed Beef Breeders. Thousand Hills Cattle Company is a well respected producer of 100% Grass Fed Beef here in Minnesota. They pay a nice premium for cattle that meet their criteria. The following was taken from their website [url=https://www.thousandhillscattleco.com/index.asp]https://www.thousandhillscattleco.com/index.asp[/url] Genetics: No Brahman (eared) influenced cattle accepted. 100% British breed cattle Strongly PREFERRED [in alphabetical order] Angus black/red, British White, Devon, Galloway, Hereford, Murray Grey, Shorthorn. Cattle crossbreds Typically Not Eligible are Continental French breeds, Charlois, Limousin, Simmental ect. Not all British Cattle or crosses are automatically accepted, they must pass visual inspection for proper phenotype. 1 moderate frame, short, deep, thick, well muscled 2 small dense cannon bones, small refined knee and hock joints 3 broad flat back or top line 4 soft supple hide, healthy oily hair and skin 5 functional endocrine system (glandular functionality) 6 calm disposition - low head set (As a footnote, last month I saw a beautiful group of grass fed red Salers sell at our local sales barn) They must have been the exception to the rule of no French Continental cattle need apply.
