[QUOTE="oscar p, post: 402428, member: 16"] I went to look at some bulls at a farm in Section Alabama one time. An Old man in his 80s came out and ask me if I wanted a polled bull on a horned bull. I told him I didn't know. He carried me out to a pasture full of bulls. He said this is my polled bulls, as he poured a bag of feed in a trough.He said they were pasture raised with a little feed. As we walked behind the bulls, he told me to look at the butts on the bulls. They all looked good. He showed me the milking #s on the bulls also. Then we walked down a little lane to his horned bulls. Now look at the butts on these bull, as he poured a bag of feed in a trough. They looked even better than the polled bulls. He said they had been pasture raised also with the same feed, he also showed me the milking #s on these bulls. There was a big difference. He told me that if you breed the horns off of them, you also breed the a$$ off of them, and you breed the horns off of them you also breed the milk out of them. I ask why he carried both, horned and polled bulls. If he like horned so much. He said to give people a choice. [/QUOTE]
