[QUOTE="M-J-G, post: 7995192, member: 1819"] I've calved around 40 odd BSH sired cows and heifers for quite a few years and have found them to be just about perfect for temperament. The bullocks are very laid back, and the few pure BSH cows I've had were just about pets. Yes AA have attitude and any cows that we have here that are dangerous at calving have AA in their background. I've not had Lims for quite a few years but had quite a bit of experience of them in the past and I ain't going back there, and all traces of them were culled out a long time ago. I'm not convinced they have improved that much as one of my mates finishes a fair few and most of them are loons. A fat day at St Boswells is mostly Lims, and unless they have improved in recent months the are still too wild for me to be interested in. I know a few Lim breeders and it seems to be a common theme to have a halter on a cow a few days pre calving so that it's possible to deal with them once they've calved. [/QUOTE]
