[QUOTE="Hogfarmer10, post: 1662702, member: 41451"] Long story short- I hate crossbreds. I just prefer purebred animals. And I can’t go red because I’d still have a pink nose, which is why my Charolais are getting docked at the sales to begin with. A point that I’ve brought up with buyers, sellers, commercial buyers, stockyard owners, etc. nobody knows why, it’s just accepted practice. I’ve heard everything from “they don’t overwinter as good” to “they make load lots look less uniform” and everything in between. I’ve also heard it’s because Charolais are wild and crazy. I’ve got nearly 100 here that says otherwise. If I have an animal that will not let you walk up to in the pasture and throw your arm around their neck and rub and play with them, whether the animal has ever seen you before or not, they’re stockyard bound. As far as adding milk, I’ve never had any issues with milk production. [/QUOTE]
