bishop, I know you too have seen it...everything with white face is a hereford, everything black is angus and if it's got ear it's a brimmer. A lot of those cattle really hurt the reputation of the "real thing". For whatever it's worth...everytime I see on of those long eared, long legged skinny brimmer heifers about 8=10 months old go thru the sale barn everybody in the house tries to get her and she really "rings the bell".bishopcattleco":13yyjy86 said:think about this for a minute if u really luv herefords or gyr or buffalo there is no reason that i can think of why u cant have 1 or 2.think about this unless u r tied to a higher authority.alot of people have dogs cats horses that have cattle too.yes some horses and dogs r worth a little money ,but how many people have plug horses not worth a bullet.eating feed never getting rode .dog feed always vet bills.when they could have 1or2 cows of a breed that they love .i had a guy tell me i couldnt have brahman cows in northwest arkansas .i have close to 30 fullbloods know.sometimes i am docked somtimes i come out better than any cattle at the salebarn on the f1 heifers. u people do know u just have one life to live do it with what u like.dont tell us u luv a breed but cant have ,sounds to me like u relly dont like them, if i couldnt have eared cattle im done

well i agree with you on that onealftn":9b3q8622 said:Van C , what you do or believe based on what you think aint no skin off my nose, good luck and more power to you .....
Secondly , You do not have do ask me If I have a problem with (THAT) , Most know when I have a problem with something, subtlity is not my thing....
I WILL TELL YOU WHAT I THINK....
Third, I keep thinking of th old Jimmy Stward movie about herefords (the rare breed?), and think that movie gave Hereford a boost ...
And it is about FAVS , not logic, or money, or even reality....
