[QUOTE="Lee VanRoss, post: 1681824, member: 40072"] You are spot on KY ! A [I]registered [/I] Angus may carry horned genes but a pure Scottish genetic version will not. For this reason I will not allow any [I]black [/I]Angus on the place. I do not have any but I am a life time member of the American Chianina Association since before they became involved in the Black Angus Polution Venture. Gelbveigh, Saler. Simmental and a plethora of non black types of cattle all jumped on the Black Cattle Band Wagon. I will say the American Angus Association have been master marketers of the breed especially as regards the black color. It goes without saying that a number of members on these pages have drank the nectar and turned their herds black. I would ask by what standard does color determine the quality of a cow? The only logical answer is the [I]perception of financial advantage[/I] without regard to function. There is little doubt in my mind those most fractured by my comments will be of the purveyors of the '[I]Holy Grail of the Blackened Cow' [/I] [/QUOTE]
