[QUOTE="cmf1, post: 836723, member: 6681"] Jeanne, when I was considering breeds that I wanted to get into I came across a book titled "Murray Greys, Australia's Own Beef Cattle". After reading it as well and tons of stuff about other breeds and talking with different producers, I chose the MG's. If you've ever seen that book the front cover pic sums up what I wanted to try an achieve as well as other "Grey" features. You've got a couple of cows on your donor page that are to a tee what I'm trying for. (Petunia, Lotus, Yikes them are fine!) More recent stock I'm seeing around seems to be chasing bigger frame scores and ending up with leggy cattle. :( :( I hope I can find an affordable equation to raise some "old school" before I give up on the breed. I don't know if they can be tweaked back or not, but I want to shoot for that. I really like the breed , and the crosses have been way good. [/QUOTE]
