[QUOTE="Anonymous, post: 7037"] Prodding me again, aren't you? Exactly the angus arrogance (please note that I haven't noticed any RED angus breeders who act this way) that causes me to counter your unsupported, biased and WRONG claims. You angus blowhards are perfectly happy to promote single trait selection as long as it is a black hide. Just one factual comment, that makes the correct observation that, black hided angus do not work the best in some environments and you start more BS. But I am sure by your rationalization, that Canadians know more than Texans about running cattle in hot environments. Give me a break. Accept it that purebred angus are not the answer to everything. > And it's just a co-incidence that > hot countries have darker skinned > people as native inhabitants? > By that reasoning, Charolais are > the only cattle that should be > used in Texas. They are more prone > to sunburn than dark pigmented > cattle.
