[QUOTE="Anonymous, post: 14733"] You know I can't say that breed really matters although I beleive that Murray Greys and Herefords as a whole can be quite forgiving. The worst thing you can do is pick one up at an auction market..... you really can't assess temperment in the ring. The best thing that you can do is choose a few breeds you fancy, then make some farm visits. If the owner handles his cattle to any degree he will know which calves are the most people friendly. Choose disposition over conformation, growth etc. You want your 4H'r to have fun and grow in skills and confidence, not to have a fearful experience.
