[QUOTE="Brandonm2, post: 197127, member: 2095"] The only other breed out there with a white face is Simmental and those Hereford appearing Simmies are fading fast so I don't think there is really a problem with many calves that aren't Hereford being misidentified as Herefords and making the CHB program. In defense of the Angus people, black Simmentals, Gelbviehs, Limousins, Salers, Senepols, Beefmasters, Maine Anjous, etc were extremely rare freaks that presumably would be bred out as grading up beeders replaced them with cattle that displayed the correct breed characteristics when the CAB program was first launched. There was no way anybody could predict that the black freaks would become the breed standards of many breeds. I think eventually Hereford verified will eliminate the need for using non-traceable calves all together. Angus has had so much success that CAB is rapidly being overtaken by other "Angus" brands so I don't believe there will ever be enough "Angus verified" calves to fill the demand of all the various "Angus" products out there.
