[QUOTE="faster horses, post: 1702466, member: 17524"] We had one. Only didn't know it when we bought it. What a learning experience. We went to this rancher's place who sold Angus bulls. He had one yearling bull shut away by himself. Man, he was a good looking bugger. We just couldn't pass him up. This was before EPD's etc were the rage. So we brought him home and we could not keep that bull anywhere. He sailed over every fence, every corral. No wonder he was shut up by himself!! (Lesson #1). Even trying to get him in horseback, he would sail over anything like a steeplechase jumping horse. So the last time he got out, Mr FH said "when I get that dirty so and so in again, I'm loading him up and he's going to town." That's exactly what happened. He lost 200# and we lost $200 and that was before bulls cost a lot. So the rest of the story...that next year this same rancher advertised his bulls for sale: ChiAngus bulls!! That was what we bought unknowingly...good looking and worthless to use. [/QUOTE]
