[QUOTE="Ky hills, post: 1790066, member: 24816"] With the plan of selling show calves to youth I’d say Hereford would be a good way to go. It seems like that is the direction that the polled Hereford breeders are going. Have to also consider what others are using in the area for sales other than the show calves. You’ll need a marketing plan for the other calves. Hereford bulls are pretty marketable for folks wanting to crossbreed. If you’re going to be in an area where Brahman influence is needed then there is probably no better cross the Hereford x Brahman. So that should provide and outlet to sell Brahman cattle and some crosses if you decide to go that route at some point. [/QUOTE]
