[QUOTE="Texan, post: 42700, member: 416"] So. Hmmm...... Red Angus are the same breed as Angus. Red Brangus are the same breed as Brangus........ I have never mentioned breeding to Angus. As far as tracing pedigrees goes, I would think that the small, commercial cow-calf operator buying a Polled Hereford would expect that to have been done by the [i]breeder[/i]! I expect that the majority of cattle operations in this country are one bull outfits. Many of us don't have the ability or the desire to trace pedigrees. We count on reputable breeders to do that for us. Maybe that's wrong, but it seems to me like that's the way it is! I don't disagree about the importance of those traits. When you say "regardless of horn status," I guess that means you feel the same about hide color? Sounds like maybe you would prefer a one breed world? We could call it the GreenWillow Breed? :D [/QUOTE]
