Jason,

Are you familiar at all with the Speckle Park breed, and if so what's your opinion of them?

I've seen a few. They are a bit small for my taste, and the color pattern doesn't help with marketing. Buyers are funny and will discount speckled calves no matter what breed they are, just because they aren't sure what cross they are.

I haven't had any hands on experience with them, they are from a numbers standpoint a novelty breed.

Would I suggest a person raise them? If you like funky colors, yes, if you want to maximize your income from cattle, no.
