[QUOTE="Mr. Greenjeans, post: 548646, member: 7085"] [img]http://www.irishblacks.com/images/2008/IrishBlacksReds/HerdSires_sm.jpg[/img] This is an attempt to raise the subject of this new breed of line-bred cattle without the previous rancor that some on this board expressed in regard to the legalities of promotion vs. information. I remain interested in this line of cattle from the standpoint of crossbreeding. Of the myriad of different breeds to choose from as well as personal favorites (mine being Brangus and Limousin), I think this breed might provide an option for the majority of us who are commercial breeders as well as a more profitable option if all we can operate is 20-30 head on smaller acreages. Our goal is consistency and quality. [img]http://www.irishblacks.com/images/2008/GouldRanch/01_sm.jpg[/img] A small registered herd with a focused gene pool could be a way to make serious money as a seedstock operator. I would love to be "that guy" providing the unbelievable bulls everyone is wanting to put on their cattle. Are Irish Blacks (a line-bred variance of Beef Friesan cattle) worth their salt?
