[QUOTE="djinwa, post: 809148, member: 8265"] I would also say again, especially in the hot south, that it would be smarter to have red cattle than black, for heat tolerance. Hot cattle don't eat as well, and are more likely to die in heat waves as we saw last summer. Dying cattle are not good for marketing. Let me predict that the heat tolerance problem will be a major factor in blacks declining. I cannot understand why anyone in the midwest or south would have black cattle.
