[QUOTE="dun, post: 612143, member: 34"] I think that when the polled line of Herefords was being developed there was a lot of single trait selection, much like the black hereford, and some positive traits were lost or at least diminshed. Now that there are more polled animals that has pretty well gone by the wayside. The negatives that were seen in any breed in the past is rememered and many producers still live with those memorys. We had horrible problems with charolais with dystocia when we had some charolais sired calves and had 2 neighbors in 2 different places thast raised registered chrolais that pulled the majority of their calves and lost a lot of cows. That has supposedly changed but I for one am unwilling to take a chance on it. [/QUOTE]
