one bull's hocks look like they touch. both videos are painful to watch.
it's amazing in 40 years they have absolutely ruined the breed.
one would think they are trying to make the least desirable cattle possible.
ugh.
i don't know which is worse, the showmanship or the cattle.

The first video are dairy cattle-look like polled Ayrshires or something-I dont blame the cows for not liking the poofy soul disco crap music-Id act up too. The Maines in the second video all have the Francais "cafe society" look of crossed hocks, man what happend. At least the group of horned cows in the "Ancient breed of France" can walk and seem pretty sound-the bull with one horn up and one down is just OK-but light years better than the ones in the second video-Maybe this herd are the maine Anjou rejects of France-But Id take a couple cows like that and be real happy breeding to Irish-clubby influenced Shorthorns O0

Unreal. These "breeders" have completely lost it.
What would happen if somebody with a lot more money and sense set up a little farm in France or Germany and imported some good American embryos and then showed them. Would they win everything or would they be too different? Would there be a demand for our type of cattle over there?
By the looks of it, these people don't have a clue as to what makes a decent animal, let alone have any awareness as to what breeders in other parts of the world are doing.
On another note, these shows look like they're not short on money or attendance, just literally no good cattle and a bunch of crazy people doing the showing.
