[QUOTE="Travlr, post: 1812641, member: 42463"] When polled cattle began to become popular there were a lot of claims being made that polled bulls threw calves with blockier heads and therefore they had more calving problems. Not sure there was any truth to the claims and it hasn't stopped people from using polled bulls. Horns are an inconvenience. You can band them or use a chemical on them when buds, or you can physically dehorn with a tool, but that's just another operation that takes time, effort, and money. And prices at the point of sale will reflect the fact that buyers don't like horns. [/QUOTE]
