[QUOTE="magpie, post: 482250, member: 62"] i'm going to step in here and mention the fact that the Longhorn Breed (not any association, but the LONGHORN BREED ITSELF) now has a Brand New Coop that will address the issue of what to do with the naturally lean heathy grass fed [b]or [/b]grain fed Longhorns... this coop's name and website is [url]http://txlonghorncoop.org[/url] main contact name is: George Slayton this Longhorn Coop is looking specifically FOR PEOPLE TO JOIN THIS COOP that RAISE grass fed Longhorns that will meet BOTH the new USDA Recommendations that went into effect as of Nov 15th, 2007 and also to meet this Coop's 1st USDA Approved "GRASS FED LABEL". however, a Second Label for "Grain-Fed" Longhorns is currently in progress and will be coming on board soon. ---------- NOW the Longhorn Breed is Nature's own version of what a grass fed animal is about... [b]Nature is the one that designed the Longhorn to be lean...[/b] ... why is it lean? it carries (places) it's fat in a different way than most commercial bovine breeds do... it carries it's extra fat around it's organs, not on the surface of the meat that has to be cut off because it's too thick... it does have natural marbling... not like the "fatty breeds" but enough to make for a nice lean healthy natural product that Nature says is best... [b]LONGHORNS ARE NATURES OWN PRODUCT[/b]--- NATURE'S OWN VERSION OF WHAT IS NATURALLY LEAN i totally agree that: LONGHORNS ARE NOT A "FEED LOT ANIMAL"... NATURE DID NOT DESIGN A FEED LOT ANIMAL... MANKIND DESIGNED THE FEED LOT ANIMAL ---- is this Coop real? yes... (how do i know? because i am on the Board Of Directors) is this Coop workable for me as a longhorn breeder? yes is this Coop good for the Longhorn Breed both for the short term and for the longterm? yes why is this Coop good for the Longhorn Breed/BREEDER? Because if we have a job/value for our lower end animals then there will be a "trickle up effect" for the other Longhorns... we all know that animals that have value keep their value... i am able to use this Coop as my valuable culling tool...for my lower end animals that do not meet our breeding requirements... those extra bull calves that are born every year... etc.. etc... this will also allow jobs for the animals that are not registered but are full or 7/8ths Longhorns. ----------- WE as Longhorn Breeders and Breeders that have a minimum of 7/8 Longhorn that has Horns, is Not Polled and will fit the requirements for either the "Grass Fed Label" or the "Grain Fed Label" ARE NEEDED [b]**CRITICAL** IT MUST HANG LIKE A LONGHORN CARCASS[/b]....IT MUST NOT HANG LIKE A COMMERCIAL BOVINE [b]IF[/b] you have straight Longhorns or a minimum of [b]7/8th "provable" Longhorn crosses[/b] then this program is for you... why? because for the 1st time in years... if you will strictly follow the simple rules and guidelines for either label... YOU WILL BE PAID [b]DOLLARS ON THE PACKAGED WEIGHT [/b]AND NOT [b]PENNIES ON THE LIVEWEIGHT[/b] ----------- [b]PM me [/b]and i will gladly talk to you about how this Coop works in more detail... and will find out the answers to any questions that i am unable to answer....or direct you to the people that can better answer your questions... ---------------- yes, there is a membership fee of $100.00 per year yes, you do need to schedule with George Slayton as to when to best bring your animals in.... ..George will work with you if you are able to tell him what, when and how many animals you are bringing... (this is [b]critical for the flow of animals[/b] to meet the weekly needs of the grocery store yes, there is a need for both Under 30 months of age Longhorns and Over 30 months of age Longhorns (obviously you will be better paid for the under 30 moa animal) yes, you will be paid on "YOUR OWN ANIMAL" as it is multible tagged to be sure of it's traceablity. it must pass inspections... if it does not fit either program then it will be rejected at the owners expense. yes, we have two grocery store chains that are EXCITED and WAITING for us to supply them with ALL THE LONGHORNS WE CAN PROVIDE (we are starting with these two, and as time goes will be [b]adding additional markets as this Coop grows[/b]) yes, [b]we can grow into more markets[/b]... as we are not limited for the natural beef market... yes, if you would rather take your animal in, have the Coop put your Longhorn into Meat Packages with it's label for resale.... and go back and pick up your own Longhorn Meat... you will now be able to sell your own Longhorn Meat to your own customers...(this is legal... because this label is legal) YES, there is a MARKET FOR LEAN MEAT.... JUST GO TO THE ARTICLE THAT CATTLE TODAY HAS ON LAURA'S LEAN MEATS go to your better grocery chain stores and just see what the lean meat is going for... i can get more for my 98% Longhorn Lean hamburger than you can for your fat hamburger... but hamburger is not it's only job... jerky.. brisket... short ribs... sauages...chili meat...barbeque..bratwurst...back ribs...prime rib roast... chuck steak, tenderloin steak, rib eye steak, new york strip steak, top sirloin steak, t bone steak yes, i have to cook it with temps that are lower and for a shorter time..or turn it into possible shoe leather because i cooked it wrong... but if i cook it the way it needs to.. then i have a quality eating product.. the Longhorn is perfect for it's [b]lean meat job[/b]... i don't/won't have to compete with the commercial bovine in any way... [b]the commercial bovine has it's OWN job that it fills very nicely.[/b] ...i just need to use my Longhorns for what they are best suited for...
