Just got back from Royal Melbourne Show and the Simmental World Congress. Just a note if the judge is Scottish do not show black or solid red colour cattle unless you like the view from the back row.
In talking to Scottish cattle breeders they seem to want each breed to resemble the breeds original type whereas in North America we have actually changed the type a great deal. When you ask a judge from another country to judge you can expect the results to be quite a bit different as they are looking for the type they are used to. They also have way more fullbloods than percentage in most breeds. I have had Australian visitors comment how unlike the original imports NA European breeds are. I guess each arae moves towards the type that suits their market and they are not always the same.Aussie said:Just got back from Royal Melbourne Show and the Simmental World Congress.
