[QUOTE="Keren, post: 625588, member: 3195"] Publicity. You answered your own question Colin, with the first thing people ask you being 'What are they?'. The biggest thing holding back the breed is publicity. We all know that is why Angus is king, because they were smart enough to make it that way. I believe any breed could have done the same if angus didnt do it. Add to that, there are not many around, not many at shows (not down my end of the state anyway), and you start to understand why people dont know about them. Why the schools wont take em, I have no idea :???: I had a couple of 25% South Devon, 50% Limo, 25% Shorthorn steers, good steers but wow, that was a fiery combination. Jumped like roos too. Dont know which of the breeds contributed that. But thats the extent of my limited experience with Sth Devs [/QUOTE]
