Can't just blame the breeders of overfed pampered stock the buyers need to take some responsibility.You are probably right, look at the hereford UK photograph champion, an impressive looking big bull, but never seen a day of tough conditions in his life.
Unfortunately these folks are present in most breeds these days .
There's a bull for sale on here looks a tidy well reared thing ready to go to work and last for years but the comments given because he's not fat and pampered are just laughable
