[QUOTE="Stocker Steve, post: 724718, member: 1715"] I have been trying the buy low (but not tooo low) and cull hard method. This means I usually come home with thin rwf cows or small rwf hiefers. Most of them pack on alot of weight after worming and a couple weeks of good grazing. The thin hereford cows I bought in November look really good now (expect for 1 cronic with lung damage) and they were laying outside with snow on their backs last night. It was about zero with a 10 mph wind... I look for reasons to cull and I end up with about 75% of the cows and about 85% of the heifers after one calving season. Does the wooly coat on a hereford give more insulation than a shiny Angus coat??? Sure looks that way from the snow depth. [/QUOTE]
