[QUOTE="Ky hills, post: 1571701, member: 24816"] Both my wife's grandparents and mine had commercial Hereford cows and usually Hereford Bulls. We have been transitioning back to Herefords for a few years now with pretty good results. The BWF calves especially heifers will usually sell with or above Angus type. The steers typically do well too. I have really liked the result of those crossbred calves. We have a fairly local market that has a Hereford influence sale twice a year which makes it good if we have some straightbred Hereford calves to sell. BWF seem to do well enough at regular sales but since that sale is like a CPH 45 the calves are graded and commingled into larger groups which is usually advantageous unless the market prices drop before the sale time comes around.
