How is Solid Gold bred please? I was thinking that he was a x-bred bull.

 

[JSchroeder]

Heat Wave x Charolais.

Heat Wave x Charolais.

Then do these steers in the "Char" class just have to look Char and are really x-bred or is there more involved than this to class Char?

[twistedhshowstock]

In Texas steers do not have to be purebred to get into a breed class.  The classification sets out a set of physical characteristics for each breed and the animal has to meet those characteristics.  So yes to class Char a steer pretty much just has to look like a Char, but can be crossbred or any other breed, as long as he looks like the breed he is trying to class.

Charolais calves get run lots of directions now.  There are plenty of exceptions, but people tend to run solid colored white, silver, or yellow calves in the Charolais breed.  White/silver spotted calves usuallly get run in either the AOBs or Simmentals more often than not.  Yellow or redder colored calves get run as Maines quite a bit.  Calves in all of the above categories also get run Chi, particularly if you have one that is smooth and pretty but not quite thick enough.  And people that have the one that will win it all have run them AOB more often than not in past years, although the AOBs got left in the cold at Houston this year.

Thanks Jeff that is interesting reading. I hope to get down to watch one or all of the big 3 in Texas B4 I expire. I think that it would almost be as fun watching the class classification process.

The market hog show @ the Royal use to be like the Texas shows. Everything was determined @ the weigh in scale. If you had say a x-bred white down eared barrow as a Landrace and the committee said no, you just then were thrown into the x-bred class. I think now that you have to have papers if you want to show in a breeds class, but am not totally sure about that.
