[QUOTE="Frankie, post: 53675, member: 13"] The fellow who established the Red Angus breed chose to collect Angus cattle that carried the red gene. Can you imagine how that limited the genetic choices to build the breed :?: The Angus Association chose to not allow registrations of red animals. That didn't exclude enough cattle to hurt the breed. Canada still keeps the two breeds in the same herdbook. That's their right. IMO, Red Angus cattle are years behind Angus in performance identification. Adding black genetics into the breed will help, I'm sure. It's helped several other breeds, Limis, Simmental, Salers.... Performance doesn't affect whether an animal is registerable either as an Angus or Red Angus. [/QUOTE]
