Red Herefords have only fallen out of favor since the rules on condemning
cancer eye cows has become so strict and the Angus folks have done a
better
job on their product. I never saw a black Hereford and my family has been
raising them about as long as they have been in this country.

The Angus folks did a better job with their promotion and genetics than
anyone else and made a black calf worth ten bucks more than anything else
to
the feed lot. Thirty years ago a black calf when begging beside a cross
bred.

what have they used to put the black into the hereford?
