[QUOTE="Rustler9, post: 103968, member: 440"] Sorry that you don't like them-I don't like alot of other breeds either. Guess that's why I don't raise them. They actually have some very good traits to bring to the table. Cross very well with other breeds, virtually no calving difficulties. Less time pulling calves and more time to do other things, a live calf to market rather than a dead one. Heart healthy beef, less fat and waste than other fatty breeds. Longevity-cows and bulls breed up into their late teens as a rule, most other breeds live and produce how long. I hear people talk about having to sell their old eight and nine year olds. Their heads and horns can be marketed after they are gone. I never see a polled head up on the wall plus you have the many different variations in colors as opposed to the whole herd all looking alike-guess I tend to get bored easily. Hides sell well too. Oh yeah, they can be trained to ride and I'm sure they would plow good too. :D [/QUOTE]
