best calf i saw this year was a herford, at tony austins! this white face would have competed with any breed.

: Don't know anything about that particular

: California, but if they break by breeds
: (where your Hereford shows against only
: other Herefords in class) then a Hereford
: could be a really good place to start - they
: usually have very good tempraments and are
: pretty easy to feed. If they have to show
: against all breeds in class, then yeah, it
: can be pretty tough to compete against the
: blacks with a pb Hereford. There are some
: that can, but they'll be hard to find and
: maybe pretty pricey if you do.

: I would not get a hereford, most judges
: perfer
: blacks and its easier to win with a black
: steer. I would go angus, chi, maine,
: simmital or a combination of these. I dont
: know what part of cali you are from but if
: you can get ahold of the schooners in
: chowchilla, ca they could probably tell you
: where to look.
