[QUOTE="Jafruech, post: 1649020, member: 24025"] I agree with what Little Joe said 100%. People who have never had LHs and LH Xs don't understand just how easy and pleasurable it is to raise them. Even the ones that only have 12.5% LH in them still show a huge difference. I select Angus and Hereford bulls that compliment and enhance the LH traits for my xbred stock. I will however give all the cows boosters once a year before calving so they pass some of it onto the calves that are half breed. It doesn't cost much and I use low stress handling and stockmanship. I don't own a hot shot and have no interest in buying them. LHs are smart. They remember. Use good stockmanship and a 5 year old can sort them on the ground (and mine does). I have a pearson XL parallel squeeze with the manual headgate. LHs can easily turn their horns and get in. However I would like to add that the "Bry LH chute" works really well too. If you have ever run LHs or LH crosses with good genetics and the right bulls you'll never run anything else. [/QUOTE]
