I just drove cross country from NY to Colorado and Wyoming, back across Nebraska, etc.
The entire west is green and the cows are all fat and shiny, but even without the good year, I'd like to put in a good word for the fine commercial cows I saw out there. I saw cows out in the middle of nowhere that were as beautiful as any we see on here as donors. 4 years ago I made the same drive and, with the exception of one Red Angus herd, saw zero cows that were not black. Last year I made the drive and saw alot of White bulls out with black cows, with a few red cows. This time the red cows OUTNUMBERED the black and there were less white bulls.
And, on HWY 50, between Gunnison and Almont, there is a Red (Angus?) bull in a pasture with a gray horse. This moderate red bull had more depth , substance, character, balance and you name it than any I've seen in all our postings.
So, Ranchers, I really admire your cattle.
