[QUOTE="Dave, post: 1766201, member: 498"] Over the years (I have been on CT for over 18 years) there has been a lot of discussion about longhorn cross calves. Anyway we ran some of the calves through on Wednesday. I had one heifer who was developing horns. So we dehorned her. B made the comment that she looked less like a longhorn. He should know his brothers run over 1,000 longhorn cows which they breed to Charolais bulls. I said well she still looks like a longhorn cross to me. He made no comment. I didn't buy any longhorn cows. But buying bred cows you never know what the bull was which bred the cow. So this morning I took her picture along with pictures of some the other heifers. They were all born in the same time frame. The first picture is my red longhorn cross. She is slab sided and no butt. The others are the heifers who would stand for a picture. Run them into the ring in a group and I would cut her out. Buyers who buy thousands of calves would cut her out before I could open my mouth. The others will sell together here no problem.
