[QUOTE="andybob, post: 668252, member: 2703"] I started with Tuli cattle in 1970, as they were one of the few breeds able to cope with the harsh environment in the bushveld area I ranched in Africa. I like their docility, fertility and easy keeping, selling F1 heifers and pure, adapted stock for crossing in commercial herds was a profitable market as they impart a high degree of heterosis in crosses with all the popular commercial breeds due to their unique genetics, and long period of isolation from European and Asian genotypes. I started a herd again when I lived in NC (Raeford) and had many enquieries from people who saw the herd on a daily basis and were impressed by the way they maintained condition on native grasses and mineral suppliment only. Presently in the UK, so considering starting Sussex as an easy keeping option on grass, the herd on the estate where I manage, consists of native Angus and Hereford on a grass only system.
