I am not bias to any breed or color, i dont think i have any friends that run the same breeds, most all use crossbreeding for hybrid vigor and heterosis. I just think that the angus breed is bunch of politics. Always find it funny when the guys that run all black angus and want nothing but black end up with reds. Just like i have a nieghbor that has been purebred black angus for years and still end up with white bellies and udders or an occasional red and they wont keep a damn one of them becasue they aren't black, even though they are probably some of the best heifers. I run a three way cross between polled hereford, angus, simmental, usually using polled hereford bulls on angus cows and then run simangus bulls on my f1 crosses.
