I think a registered animal used for breeding purposes should have the proper traits, phenotype for the breed. At least you have the market cornered, you can call them black Hereford's, Simmental, SimAngus, or Baldies. I do think he'll work good on Angus cows.
What's right is right and that's just how I feel.
And what IS the proper traits of the Simmental breed Grit????? You seem to have standards that the breed does not acknowledge. Show me where it says an ideal Simmental should be solid black, or black with a white face? Or even Black??? YOU might put that label on the Simmental breed, but others do not. There are lots of breeders out there that like that extra chrome.
Well, Simmental were red - tan with white spots at one time "original" , then more red "Limo", then black "Angus", then black baldie "Hereford" now the Simmental is the most watered down breed out there. The Simmental beed is nothing but a crossbred cow with no uniformity left in it's bloodlines. You folks that breed Simmental cattle have no clue what the calf is going to look like. To each their own, and that's just the way I see it.
