[QUOTE="andybob, post: 178167, member: 2703"] Ryan,Very nice bull. One of my earlier posts was an enquiery as to lines of longhorn improved through selection. I have read as much about longhorn as I can find on the internet, as I have an avid interest in adapted breeds, and their potential in crossbreeding programs. The improved Sanga breeds have as good conformation as any commercial breed,without having compromised any of their adaptability to harsh environments. The polled,plain coloured strains are the more popular, but demand for coloured,horned strains is always constant. Colour is more to do with aethetics, but some ranchers in high predator areas go for horned strains to improve their weaning percentages. Researching the development of the more popular Sanga breeds may be of interest to Longhorn breeders interested in the posibilities of improving the longhorn Phenotype through selection, but worried about compromising the hardy traits of the breed.
