[QUOTE="Nesikep, post: 798517, member: 9096"] well. 15 years ago we had a saler bull, and here's what I have to say from my experiences big framed cows, 7's aren't rare temperament? the bull was nice, the cows, well, there'd be the ones that would kill you in an instant when they had calved, and others were docile... so if you have predators they are great, if you have to handle them a lot, not so much... one of our neighbors had Salers, and he never lost a calf with them, when he switched to RA, he started to lose up to 15 a year to wolves.. the saler cows would huddle up with the calves between them and take on anything that came around Salers have good small udders and lots of milk, never had a saler cow with bad teats or any problems there they also have good hooves Dark red color means sale barn buyers who don't really know the breed will think it's a red angus that's particularly tall the bull we had was sold at 9 years old and 2800 lbs here is a picture of Rosie, who is half saler half hereford cross... she's particularly blond... the previous comment about the tailstock can be well observed on her, though the picture may not show it too well.. I think she's about 12 years old in the picture [img]http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v153/Rx7man/Moo/LillooetOct92007086-1.jpg[/img] you can still see the Saler tail and small udder in her daughter here..
