[QUOTE="Taurus, post: 1076299, member: 18288"] Yup but the Pied has some flaws: their late maturity than most British breeds and some pieds have slower growth rate when compared to other breeds. My friend used to raising Pied cattle for the seedstock and the terminal sires for anyone with longhorn cows. He bred his longhorn cows to the Pied bulls while he bred all Pied heifers to a longhorn bull for the first calf. Sold Pied bulls and longhorn bulls four years ago and now he is running SimAngus bulls on the pied cows and longhorn cows for marketable terminal calves. He do well with the latter bulls. [/QUOTE]
