Scotty I have a mixed herd. A few limosine moms, a couple of good saler cows, some red angus, and the rest are purebred angus and angus cross cows. One thing for sure they are all bred to a good registered angus calving ease bull... they all calve around the same time so the calves are very similar in size and shape.... THe solid black calves always bring the most money. And by using angus and angus crosses you will never have any problem with horns on your calves. Dehorning is a particularly distastefull business. Also as you go along you will notice which cows are the calmest and easiest to deal with. Keep their heiffer calves as replacements and your herd will become more and more gentle. Wild high headed rips go the sale barn as bred cows with nary a wave farewell... Life is too short to deal will fence jumpers or cows that want to blow snot in your pocket when you go the weigh and tag their newborn calf.. I raised my bull as a weaned calf, and he is gentle as they come. When I go out to check on the bunch he always walks over to get his neck scratched. A trick I taught him as a calf if he wanted to get his grain... Jusy my opinion of course , Tallperson
