[QUOTE="novatech, post: 402302, member: 5494"] I don,t know squat what differences there are between polled herfords and horned herfords. Years ago an old timmer said don,t use a polled as they have big heads and will cause birthing problems. (Seems like a birth weight issue to me) More resently I was told to use a horned bull as the genetics were better(what ever they ment by that). I was also told that polled will give you more tigerstripes. (I don,t buy it) Is there any truth to any of this or is it more old expert advice of people that don,t really know? Are there any real advantages of one over the other, that can be supported, aside from the horn/poled issue? [/QUOTE]
