[QUOTE="AAOK, post: 525105, member: 861"] Cowboy, I assume that "out of" means Sired by. If this is the case, I much prefer the Lifeline heifer. She is just so much better balanced than the other calf. When talking price, I would pay double for her verses the Ground Zero calf for showing in a breeding heifer class. Do you know the genetics of the Dams? Have the heifers been PHA tested? Australian Cattleman: Breeding black into the Maine-Anjou breed became popular with U.S. breeders in the early 1990s (many had started long before then, mostly to improve their Angus cows). By 1995 probably 75% of the MA "Show" animals were Black or Blk/Wht. The AMAA registy regards both bull and cows at 87.5% MA and above as Purebred. High Precentage heifers are permitted to show at 75% and above. As the breed became continually "blacker", a group of Texas Maine-Anjou breeders formed the Maine-Anjou Traditionalists, which promote Fullblood Maine-Anjou cattle genetics (Proper Coloured). The driving force of Solid Black Maine-Anjou cattle in the U.S. today is the Commercial Cattleman. They need their calves to have a black hide to be accepted into the AAA's CAB program. American Cattlemen are still the primary suppliers of Beef to the world. [/QUOTE]
