[QUOTE="turning grass into beef, post: 448022, member: 5195"] I have never had any experience with the dual purpose shorthorns so I can't comment on them. We have been raising purebreds and commercial shorthorns since 1961 and have been happy with them. We have experienced very few calving problems. This year we helped less than 1% of the mature cows. Shorthorns are no different than any other breed in the respect that there are good quality shorthorns and poor quality shorthorns. It is just a matter of breeding the good ones. One thing that is pretty consistent though, is the temperament. We calve out a lot of cows of various breeds and shorthorn cattle have proven to us to be very docile. [/QUOTE]
