[QUOTE="DOC HARRIS, post: 591104, member: 1683"] OK Jeanne- TERRIFIC! This is the example of Phenoptype which will make a Beef Producer realize a PROFIT at the end of a breeding season! Color or not, eventually the beef consumers in America are going to realize that it takes more than a slab-sided, funnel-butted, ewe-necked, pencil-gutted cow to produce the kind of quality beef that they want to see in the Retail Market shelves. This kind of bull is how the industry can be improved! The sooner that the BEEF producers in the USA can get this fact pounded into their skulls and wake up to the need to obtain QUALITY genetics for their seedstock, the sooner they will stop whining about black being the only color that people will eat! The feedlot owners are more of a problem in that regard than the uneducated and UNinformed feeder calf producers. We can ALL recover from the [b][color=#FF0000]SHOCK[/color][/b] of the recent stock market "Wake-UP" call if we will take the opportunity to re-examine our priorities in breeding our cattle, and learn the lesson that is right in front of our eyes: "Your CAN'T make a silk purse out of a sows ear", and the Beef Cattle Producers of the country had better wake up and smell the Kool Aid - and take this opportunity to re-vamp their lousy Beef genetics. It is easier to cull a herd through the Bulls that you use, than to [b]completely[/b] cull your cows, but use your heads and cull a few of the bad producers, get maybe [b]ONE[/b] top donor, along with your improved Bull selection choice - and make a difference in a few years, rather than to just go along with the same old same old - and improve your life. It does no good to continue to sing the same old Blue's - And moan and groan about things that you CAN DO SOMETHING ABOUT! DOC HARRIS [/QUOTE]
