[QUOTE="backhoeboogie, post: 813055, member: 3162"] The old vet (who raises a lot of cattle - a heck of a lot of them) tells me it is not so much out 100 plus temp days. It is rather our over night lows being at or above 80 degrees that get these cold climate cattle in trouble. As far as black go, my pasture is full of mostly long eared brangus. There are many more issues than just the high points noted in that write up. Anyone refuting facts has some agenda or an axe to grind. I have a few slick angus. They calve in the fall or else they get shipped. I have had one for 7 years now. These angus live on the edge of the cull list. They don't get a second chance for anything. When I am at tha sale barn and the ring man says, " this next group has been running with an angus bull" I get up and go for coffee. Thanks for letting me know since I am expanding and not looking for terminal calves only. When I go back to a terminal bull, I'll be producing super baldies. Some people refer to angus brangus crosses as "A+". These are Actually a Brangus minus IMHO. I am just one buyer at the sale. Everyone is entitled to their opinions and can bid to their hearts content. [/QUOTE]
