[QUOTE="Sylvanglades, post: 68140, member: 505"] We found a breed that I feel is an excellent one for beginners. American British White Parks. Extreme docility! It doesn't get any better than this! No more chasing across the pasture til near exhaustion. Easy to pen and load. Most have no "flight zone" meaning they are not afraid of humans and let you work with them and among them without constantly moving away. Records of birth kept by existing American British White Park breeders show that in general losses are very small when compared to to other popular breeds. ABWP's calving birth sizes range from 70 lbs to 84 lbs with 76 being about average. These cattle are easy keepers and have great weight gains on pasture only. This is not a large breed but mid sized. Not as many breeders as this is not a well known breed but there are a few in most states with a few in MN and lots in TX. Contact info for breeders can be found at [url]http://www.whitecattle.org[/url] and I have pictures and more info at my website [url]http://www.americanbritishwhite.com[/url] My husband had raised cattle before but I had not been around them much. As a new breeder myself, I have found that I made the right decision going with American British White Parks. I can't say enough good about them. We feel we really found a gem in the haystack with this breed. Hope this helps and Good Luck! [/QUOTE]
