[QUOTE="skidboots, post: 268308, member: 4633"] Thank you all for sharing your knowledge and experience with this breed, but you are all WAY to advanced for me! I just like them. To my eye, they look like they would deliver more of the choicest cuts of meat than some other breeds. I like all cattle breeds. I have heard that some breeds have been knocked for being tough or stringer, or having a strong odor. That comment about fertility, tempremant, is a consideration,( though I suppose certain strains of Limosine are more sucessful at these traits than others.) There was also a discussion about "marbeling" and "Rib Eye size", where someone said that all this crossbreeding resulted in guesswork about genetics and the resulting offspring qualities.....boy I can see where that is true. However, the angus breed has been so successful at advertising, that at a recent sale barn, I saw cows started at .37 to .46 in all breeds, but if they just looked angus, they were started at .61 Wow, like Mr. Wrigly said, "If I had it to do over, I'd spend $.99 on advertiseing, and $.01 on the gum!" Well, I'm starting to ramble. Lets end this thread here, and thanks again to all. [/QUOTE]
