[QUOTE="DOC HARRIS, post: 126592, member: 1683"] Nothing against Brafords - particularly in the "chigger" and "Hurricane" Belt - but what is the compelling factor on the part of your Grandma for raising Brafords in New York? :o The breed is programmed for hot, rainy, sultry, muggy climates - not HOT and SNOWY and C-O-L-D, WET winters. Has she considered Angus? There are a lot of them in New York, and successful breeders who can give her good advice and information. My suggestion: go to the Breeds site on this forum and click on Braford. Also click on Angus, Hereford, and other breeds and do some study and compare breeds. Have her determine WHY she is thinking Braford, and if Braford fits her needs, seek out a Bradord Breeder in New York and get local knowledge. ps I just read that she lives in Pennsylvania! Same thoughts as above pertain to Penn as well as NY! DOC HARRIS [/QUOTE]
