[QUOTE="Flacowman, post: 798346, member: 7676"] I'm glad the posts got away from breed bashing y'all. I think you covered everyone but the Longhorn and holstein breeds in your various rants but it was entertaining. I have located a local farmer who has 82 head of herf/angus heifers that he is weaning this spring and I am going to buy them and put char bulls over em and a brangus over the best ones for baldy mamas with a touch of ear. I'm not going to the trouble of quoting or naming but we are the third oldest angus breeder in the state, so I did NOT in ANY way bash the breed. Second, it is true that to get anything over market price for an angus calf you need the best of the best...it's a fact. We have some dang good uns but it's time for a change for us, simple as that. Third, any crossbred will sell, grow, and raise a calf better than any purebred with few exceptions...fact. Therefore, we are going to a commercial herd with less input costs and labor and just as much gross income, therefore more profit. The original intent was to simply get opinions on what you see selling, growing, and raising best in your area, not a pissing match. Now, go with God and take this thread wherever y'all want cuz I found my uniform group of commercial cows to buy and look forward to what you guys n gals come up with next. :cowboy: [/QUOTE]
