[QUOTE="KNERSIE, post: 602656, member: 4353"] Hope that never happens here, the white face trademark is something we should cling to as if our lives depended on it. A blaze face alone or pigment alone won't do much for eye problems the total package needs to be adressed. That is my thinking as well. I like a very correct marked calf in the traditional sense, but as soon as a marking desides the quality of a animal we're on the wrong track. Aaron do you know how much the standard set for markings in the USA (back when herefords were the breed) differ from the traditional markings in the UK? If you ever get the chance visit the offices of the International Hereford breed association in Offa Street in Hereford, they have lots of old paintings and photos there that will surprize you. I also visited with the Llandinabo, Free Town and other herds that have traditional herefords (ie herefords that traces directly back to the original herdbook of 1846 without any outside influence) you'll be surprized at the amount of flashy marked calves.
