[QUOTE="greenwillowherefords, post: 44698, member: 587"] Of course I am biased, I wouldn't be raising Herefords if I didn't like them best, but if you are not in such a tropical climate that you have to have a little Brahman influence to beat the insects and extreme heat, many would agree with me that it's hard to beat a English breed such as Angus, Hereford, Shorthorn. For a commercial herd, an Angus bull on Hereford cows or a Hereford bull on Angus cows will consistently produce a good-selling calf in most areas. If you are a little further south, Brafords, Brangus, or Super-baldies(BrangusXHereford) might fit the bill. Of course I'm just one opinion. A moderate-framed breed will fit the packer's box, and take less grass and feed to support. See the breed listing on CattleToday. Good luck! [/QUOTE]
