[QUOTE="Frankie, post: 705008, member: 13"] The truth has set in. Consumers pay more for branded beef. Packers and retailers get more money for branded beef, so they have more money to pay for an animal that will fit the branded beef program. The money comes from the consumer. There's little difference in what it [b]costs[/b] a commercial cattle man to raise a red or black calf. In fact, there are probably a lot more reasonably priced black bulls out there than red bulls. Especially when you add the breeds that used to be red or spotted. Premiums might be received when demand exceeds supply. But first you've got to get the demand up. [/QUOTE]
