[QUOTE="Brandonm2, post: 146626, member: 2095"] They are creating a breed that is Black but is 87% or more Hereford. Basically what they are saying is that they like everything about Hereford except the red color. Most American Simmental breeders have rejected their historical color patterns in favor of a solid black or black whiteface look. [url=http://abs-bs.absglobal.com/beef/simmental_ss_main.asp]http://abs-bs.absglobal.com/beef/simmental_ss_main.asp[/url] So have many American Limousin, Gelbvieh, Beefmaster, Chianina, etc breeders. I don't see what is all that different about what these Herf guys are doing compared to what many whole breeds have done. 40 years ago there were few, if any "purebred" Limousin or Simmentals in the world that were Black. Now there are hundreds of thousands of them. We all have the RIGHT to go buy a bunch of cows somewhere and breed them to produce something more or less consistent and then call it a "breed". [/QUOTE]
