[QUOTE="Brandonm2, post: 140064, member: 2095"] I hate to always be so skeptical; but I am not sure that Shorthorn is doing this to improve the beef biz as much as they need more registrations so are trying to get a few reg. Red Angus cow owners to register their calves with them and allow Shorthorn owners to use a Red Angus bull on heifers (Red Angus has a big birth wt adv over most Shorthorns) and still register the resulting calves. If a Durham Red is a better cow than a Red Angus or a Shorthorn (likely) and can pass on that superiority to the F2 generation (the BIG ?) this may eventually go somewhere. IF not this could just be another of the many, many minor breeds in this country that don't really contribute much to the industry; but which make larger cattle shows so interesting. [/QUOTE]
