Frequently Asked Questions

Iverson Black Herefords prides itself on raising high-quality, registered Black Hereford cattle. Our experience as commercial cattle producers have taught us the importance of breeding for length and carcass weight, rather than chasing YW at the expense of other traits. We have kept our commercial calves in the past to slaughter and have seen when you chase high YW number you get larger live weights with smaller hot carcass (you can't eat guts). When you cross our Homo Black Hereford bulls with your mixed cows, you can expect to see all black baldie calves with no gate cut in the fall when you sell (no more gate cutting your red calves, your calves will sell in one group, and there is always a demand for black baldie females).
