[QUOTE="Kent, post: 178661, member: 2134"] Well around here, you can get good registered Hereford cows for $1200 or good reg. Angus cows for $1500. Bulls are about equal in price. So if you buy 50 Hereford cows you will spend $60,000 and if you buy Angus it will cost you $75,000. The baldy calves will be equal in value, so it only makes sense to start with Hereford cows here. Having said that, most people around here won't buy a cow if it's not black, so go figure. I'm not saying this to anyone in particular, but I do know this: if a man is claiming that "all Angus are poor milkers" or "all Herefords are poor milkers", he is talking over his head. There are excellent and poor cows in each breed. If you've got a poor cow, you shouldn't have bought her or the sorry bull that sired her, whichever the case may be. Just get rid of her and get you a good one and quit putting down someone else's cattle. [/QUOTE]
