[QUOTE="Caustic Burno, post: 1253035, member: 694"] Breeding straight Herefords there is no advantage unless you are a seedstock producer you will take a hit at the barn. By your description when you load the trailer to go to the barn it looks like a box of crayons that hurts you as well. Now put a Brangus or Angus bull in the pasture and get ready to be happy. Those super baldie heifers will draw a premium as replacements and the steer calves will ring the bell as well. Not a bad selection of cows for the Hereford bull the Brangus and Angus throw premium calves. The Tiger heifers out of that bull could be a gold mine if you held them to 750 pounds as replacements. 3/4 Hereford 1/4 Brahman would sell hot in this area the steers will get docked at the barn. Now I like a Hereford cow as I can buy them cheaper and come back with a Black or Char bull both will draw a premium. If it were me I would put a black bull on them and load all black and black baldies on the trailer to go to the barn. I would look at holding some baldie heifers out of the Tigers and Brangus for replacements. [/QUOTE]
