[QUOTE="skcatlman, post: 443120, member: 5562"] UG - As much promotion as braunvieh could do and as good as they are the breed's color will hold it back the same as tarentaise. The off color calves will get docked at the market as dairy crosses. The confusion ;-) and color will let buyers get good feeding cattle at a major discount much as tarentaise crosses do for being confused ;-) as jersey crosses. And as far as breeding to blacks and covering the color it will take a few generations to hide it. Personally i have worked with the breed up here in bull tests stations and as steer trials and well in the commercial settings. They work but shaking the color stigma will be tough. So i just ccan't see the breed being the next big thing. [/QUOTE]
