[QUOTE="goddy, post: 325334, member: 3612"] We raised Simmentals ( not the black or solid red kind ) in New Zealand for 14 years and found them great all round cattle to raise. As a breed we didn't show for many years and concentrated on peformance and so eliminated a lot of the calving issues but sadly the showring took over for a lot of people and did a lot of damage. My first year in the US we went to our local fair- after going through the the simmentals in the cattle pens my wife asked me if they made me miss the Simmys from home. I had to say I hadn't seen one that looked like a Simmy so it wasn't a problem. Its a shame really as they are a breed with a tremendous amount to offer especially when it comes to producing fast growing young beef on grass. cheers Goddy [/QUOTE]
