[QUOTE="Alberta farmer, post: 656088, member: 8978"] Knersie: No there are not a lot of straightbred hereford females around here anymore. There are still a lot of hereford cross cattle with a white face. Simmental, Limo, Charlais bulls were used a lot from about 1985 on. The use of Angus bulls in a big way started about the mid to late nineties. Probably really accelerated after about 2002 as the market dictated a smaller, more marbled, more efficient cow. There are good cattle in every breed. Depends what works for you. I am approaching retirement and have no desire to build a program that looks beyond a couple of years. In those couple of years I want to make the most money I can without killing myself. Angus works for me. [/QUOTE]
