[QUOTE="CowboyRam, post: 1776446, member: 42312"] I have been trying to figure out what made them "fancy" myself. I had the auctioneer call mine fancy a couple years ago. I don't have the best cows, mixed with several different breeds, mostly Black Angus, a few Herford, Charolais, Red Angus, a couple that are probably a Long Horn cross, and others that I have no idea what they are. My bulls are not top of the line, but they are good Black Angus bulls. As near as I my pea brain can figure out is that maybe it depends on the how the calves look at the sale, and the inputs that have been put into them. My calves have come off the desert looking very good the last few years. I vaccinate at branding, pre-wean vaccination, deworm, and I also give my cows mineral once they come back to the farm in October, and they are on mineral until they go back out on the desert in June. The cows don't get any other feed than Alfalfa during the winter. That is my 2cents worth, for what it is worth. [/QUOTE]
