My goal for our cattle has been: Prove that our British White cattle -- heritage cattle -- are excellent beef, as good or more efficient grass cattle than other popular breeds, easy to handle, easy calvers and good mamas. They've done all that for us. Our butcher says he'd like one of ours hanging any time someone comes through his door -- makes him look good. At auction, they don't sell as well as black-hided beef. But we broke a new barrier today! We have a British White bull prospect going out as the potential new herd sire over a bunch of Black Angus cows in an established organic/CSA program in Oregon. I could not be more delighted!
 
Congratulations! Sounds like you are well on your way to meeting your goals. You should be proud of what you have accomplished.

Good for you!! Is this the one you posted a while back asking if you should grow him out?

I sold my old herd bull to some folks, they like do much they are buying bred daughters of him from me and another bull next summer.

That's the one, AllForage. 3-Way more than strongly urged me to keep him, but bottom line is that we aren't set up for a full-time bull. Timing couldn't have been better, as we are "adjusting" the other bull calves this weekend. We're thrilled this guy will have a job to do.
