[QUOTE="CPL, post: 674198, member: 6346"] If you find a Hereford Bull that is built like a Belgian Blue you let me know. Last I knew it was genetically impossible because Belgian Blues have the double muscle gene and Herefords don't. To me, the bull you've posted looks awkward. I also think its interesting that ABS has him at 3 stars of calving ease and 4 stars on carcass, but haven't posted his BW, or his actual scan data. I like the bull Harley posted. I've only seen one bull calf out of him in person, but he was made right. What about the Canadian bull Global that Harley's posted about in the past? I'm pretty sure he has an outcross pedigree that you'll like, and in my opinion better phenotype. Also if you could describe your terrain where lighter muscled cattle have an advantage I'd be all ears. [/QUOTE]
