[QUOTE="Anonymous, post: 5192"] Hey! Just read all the messages and as expected nearly everyone is pushing Angus and related. No problem with them! Excellent cattle with good sale barn prices. While we're looking at options, consider: * Low birthweight calves 50-65# * Very efficient browsers--eat most anything. * 99.7% unassisted calving. * Calve every year (with FEW exceptions) * Calve into late teens and early 20's. * Lean, low fat/cholesterol beef. * Very hardy--all climates. * FEW health problems--lots of genetic immunity. * EXCELLENT milkers and mothers. * Excellent predator control. * Very gentle, intelligent, easily worked. * All colors and combination of colors. * Virtually immune to pinkeye. * Yes, you're docked at sale barn! * Excellent market for hides, skull and horns--often $500 to $1500. * Many marketing options, not just slaughter outlet. The animal? A Texas Longhorn, of course! P.S. On purchasing a bovine--it costs just as much to feed a 1000 lb excellent animal as it does a poor one...chase quality in a bull (or semen) and the dam (of course you already knew that...lol) [email=info@runningarrowlonghorns.com]info@runningarrowlonghorns.com[/email] [/QUOTE]
