Hi, I need information from Corriente breeders regarding the acceptable body condition of this breed. A new rancher has moved into our area and he raises Corriente cattle (1000+ head). This is "beef" cattle country and folks are starting to give him a bad time about his cattle. they are saying he is starving his cattle but I beleave the cattle look the way they do because of the BREED not because of the feed. Folks around here are used to seeing fat, thick body style, beef- cattle, not the lean, narrow body style of the Corriente cattle. I want to help this rancher with the onslaught of "do-gooders" who are starting to complain.
What is the common looks of this breed when out in the fields? What is the commen practice (of feeding) of young stock prior to spring sell for roping calves/steers? Is there anyplace on the web I can go for this information?
thank you.
me.
