[QUOTE="grubbie, post: 661556, member: 5478"] I am surely no expert on the breed, we raise baldies, but use a longhorn bull on our first calf heifers for calving ease. Here is what I can tell you from my experience; Easy calving, easy to feed, tough as hell in any environment, calves hit the ground running and suckling right away, bulls don't waste any time getting the job done. In our experience, the half longhorns sell right along with the baldy calves, they do just fine. However, full "longhorn looking" calves don't sell real good here. If they did, I would probably be raising them myself. Important thing is to raise whatever breed you enjoy raising. My opinion, there is nothing prettier than a hereford, but everyone has their favorites. [/QUOTE]
