Both are around the same size as the other. Some lines of Angus may be a bit bigger than most Herefords, but generally both breeds tend to maintain the same size.

How many cattle before you register them?

It's not the matter of how many cattle you have, it's their breed status. You can have just one animal and still be able to register it, but only as long as the animal meets the requirements of the breed association. For instance, a cow that is 3/8 Angus and 5/8 Hereford does not qualify either as pure Hereford nor pure Angus. Even if she is 9/16 Hereford and 7/16 Angus she still does not qualify. Only if she is 15/16 Hereford and 1/16 Angus or less, can she qualify as a purebred (or straightbred) Hereford cow, provided she has the red colour and white markings typical of a Hereford. The same things with Simmentals, even if all red and all black colorations have been infused into the breed. If the animal is 15/16 Simmental, it qualifies as a purebred Simmental. Any cattle that are compound bred, do not have the proper colourations or physical charateristics, nor have the paperwork that trace their ancestry as purebred, can be allowed to be registured as pure. Number of cattle does not matter; WHAT they are does.
