Let's see the study. I like herefords myself, just like all breeds you have to be picky about what you let stay on the farm, and maybe have to be a little pickier with herefords than angus or simmental, in general.farmguy said:What happened to Hereford talk?

Basically all it says is, the final product is about the same. What's wrong with that?
I dont think we should get rid of all horned animals, if that makes any difference. Some people like that. They are nice to look at on some I think.
But for the producer who wants slaughter animals only, why not go polled if the end result is the same or possible better for carcass merits?

I'm far from a purebred enthusiast, but I think it's very cool that some people are keeping that kind of thing alive. Heritage type animals, if u will.
No reason for them to be all snooty about it tho!
If it walks like a Hereford.
Looks like a hereford.
Quacks like a hereford.
Its probly a hereford...!
Lmao
