[QUOTE="TexasBornNRaised, post: 1093236, member: 21797"] Howdy everybody! :cboy: I'm a young guy from Texas about to graduate from Tarleton State University with my degree in Agriculture Services and Development and Ag Ed to become a teacher in the great field of Agriculture. So here's the deal, I love cattle and have been raised with them and as I will soon be moving off my house on the family farm, I figure it's time to get my own herd started for real (I have a few Baldies and Black Herefords). What I really want is to run a small to medium sized operation with a registered purebred herd and a separate commercial herd but I'd like for all of my cattle to be the same breed (but I'd be open to some crosses in the commercial herd). I have a ton of experience with Registered Limousins and Herefords (polled and non), Commercial Brangus, Angus, Baldies, Black Herefords, and Herefords. Herefords are my favorites by far but there is a slight buzzing in my ear that they don't sale great in Texas and as an ag teacher I won't be able to put a lot of money into something that won't return a decent profit. If at all possible I'd like to stay away from Limousins as my girlfriend's dad (and probably my future father in law) runs a huge Limousin operation and I'd like to make it on my own steam not his. All that to say, I need the good people of this website to help me make a decision on what breed would benefit me the most in my position. Thank you in advance for your help and I'll sure try to reply to any further questions you may have, any genuinely helpful posts, and to let you know what my current thinking process is at various times, and of course my final decision.
