[QUOTE="hillsdown, post: 671529, member: 5106"] I have asked that many times as well why black is the "God" of colors in the US it is not here at all. Reds and baldies sell much better and the only things that really get docked a bit were the greys but now that is changing as well. As long as the cattle are good cattle the color does not make a difference to the feeders or slaughter houses. So why is it so different in your area ??? I do like some of the black Gelbviehs but find right now the frames are a bit larger than what I am shooting for, but being black has nothing to do with me liking them, they could be pink and I would still like the look of the cows. I guess Holsteins were easier, it was my choice of dairy breed and you could not cross it with anything else and register it. [/QUOTE]
