[QUOTE="SRBeef, post: 626204, member: 7509"] You bring up a "wintering" question. I have some cows and heifers that have a real "fuzzy" coat in the winter and some that are smooth and shiney as you describe. Logic might lead to the conclusion the fuzzy coat ones would do better in the subzero temps and winds but actually the smooth shiney Herefords seem to do as well or better in the cold. Is there some logic to coat and appearance and wintering ability? [/QUOTE]
