[QUOTE="txag, post: 193584, member: 8"] true, you probably [i]shouldn't[/i] design a breed around the fact that you don't have to dehorn calves, but the fact remains that there are commercial cattleman who buy their bulls on this criteria. and because not all commercial cattleman are running angus & red angus cows (or bulls on their horned herf females), there is a demand for polled hereford bulls. as for the crap shoot, there is now a dna test for the polled gene (Radar was tested homozygous polled) and i hope more breeders begin to utilize it.
