[QUOTE="OK Jeanne, post: 282260, member: 3333"] Cowboy44: We have purebred and commercial Murray Greys. That breed choice is the best decision we made in 1995 when getting started...they are all they are hyped up to be in my opinion. I have no information about sale barn prices. Any animals that we do not sell private treaty for breeding stock are generally finished out for direct-market beef. Cull cows go to the butcher for ground beef, also sold direct. If you use a murray bull on almost any colored cow, you will get a chocolate colored calf(polled)....all the way from cocoa to dark hershey colored. I suspect sale barn buyers would think it is an angus cross. We have a couple of heifers in this year's auction that are 1/4 angus and 3/4 murray grey....instead of the chocolate color, they arrived in the silver category. Here's a link to the "gallery" page of the auction if you want to see what they look like: [url=http://tinyurl.com/rmzdf]http://tinyurl.com/rmzdf[/url] good luck! [/QUOTE]
