[QUOTE="Warren Allison, post: 1696789, member: 40587"] I don't know of anybody that has tried to "trick" anyone. Everyone I knw that has crossed Corriente cows with Angus bulls, including my friend last week and myself several times in the 90's and early 2000's, just take the calves to the sale barn and unload them, and tell the the guys at the in take area what name the check goes to. I have never had any idea who bought any weigh cattle.. I never stick around to see. Dunno of anyone else who does, either. When I have stuck around for the first hour or so and watched the weigh cows sell ( usually because I am waiting on them to get my check for head cattle I have sold, or get my bill ready for any head cattle I bought) I have never seen buyers try to stop the auction and ask any questions. They can see the animal for the 1-3 seconds it is in the ring, and the weight is displayed when it enters the ring, so I reckon that is all the info they need ...or want...to know. I suppose there are some on here that think that if you DO stick around and watch the weigh calves sell, and you see one of your Angus x Corriente steers come in the ring, and it starts bringing too much money you are supposed to do what?... try to interrupt the 1-3 seconds of bidding and stand up and announce " That calf is half Corriente?"
