[QUOTE="townfarmer, post: 1296681, member: 9305"] Your little summary there seems pretty accurate from the little I know. The devon society here has a magazine called bulldust. The latest issue had a big report of devons in the US. It seems that these "anti establishment hobby farmers" (brilliant descriptor :lol: ) are actually quite a substantial emerging market that the US devon society is targetting. Some of these "new to cattle" producers seems so fanatically grass only that even their sale bulls are prepared on poor quality grass only. A lot of the bulls in sale catalogues look like underweight steers. It seems like a breed promotion disaster to me. Although I'm told that amongst the hundreds of newbies like me breeding devon cattle there are some exceptional herds of cattle in the US who as you say have imported the top genetics from the UK, NZ and Australia.
