What are your opinions on the polled herefords? The only herefords I see around here are a herd of the polled variety. They seem to suffer quite a bit of cancer eye and the only complaint I would have about the udders is that they are almost non-existent :shock: Are the polleds generally considered a poor relative of the horned?
Herefords are really rare in the UK nowadays - it was the fat issue that killed them there. Tough to sell fat at all in Europe but doubly so the yellow fat the hereford produced on the mainly grass fattening regimes. Since moving here I've learnt of the benefits of grass-fed beef and that the yellow fat will contain all the health benefits pertaining to grass-fed beef.
