[QUOTE="Anonymous, post: 4645"] Thanks for the advice. Solid black always brings the best price here too, even if it is a poor looking animal. Doesn't make sense. Part of the cows are bred to a Brangus this time. The other part to a black Angus, but neither bull has the hind quarters the Limousin had. We'll see how we do. Any suggestions are welcomed and appreciated. > It's true about the coloring of > the hair coat can bring a lower > price or raise the price.
