When we got our first cows in 1986, we went to seminars, cattle association meetings, Noble Foundation meetings, everwhere we could to try and learn. At that time, Limousin was the breed of choice in this area. Red ones, of course. Big, pretty, muscled animals. There were some Smmentals, red and yellow, too. Big, spotted animals.
I don't remember anyone at any of these meetings telling us that we were getting our cows too big and we should stop using those big, muscled bulls.
Did I miss it? Because today I see poster after poster on this board telling us that we're getting our cows too big. When did this start? Can anyone tell me?
