[QUOTE="Rustler9, post: 212906, member: 440"] I understand that buyers really ream us on spotted or off colored cattle. They basically do that because they can. I've seen plenty of Longhorn cross that would give other straight bred or beef crosses a good run for the money but I guess it all depends on the quality of the other animal that is crossed with the Longhorn. I also understand that there are other low weight beef bulls out there-I guess I don't understand why more folks don't use them on their first calvers. I see alot of folks on this board talk about the woes of calving season and the difficult births and losses of cows and calves. I grew up with the same thing-spending long nights up with cows that couldn't give birth, paralyzed cows and heifers, dead calves, trying to graft another calf on the cow because her's died with a difficult birth etc. Man, I sure don't miss that one bit.
