[QUOTE="Frankie, post: 740869, member: 13"] There are people around still raising Herefords with horns. Years ago, the Polled (naturally hornless) Hereford people broke away from the American Hereford Assn and started their own Association. Both Associations were financally strapped a few years ago and merged to better promote the entire Hereford breed. But some folks aren't willing to let by-gones be by-gones and there's still some hard feelings between the groups as has been shown on this board many times. Feedlots and beef packers prefer polled animals because of equipment damage, bruises on the meat, feed bunk space, etc. So the demand for polled has grown. BTW, I raise Angus. [/QUOTE]
