    Stirring the pot on the LH/corriente topic

    im sure shes bred back and shes a longhorn cow no dairy, her horns are cut, look at her tight little bag and her sloped rear end. her ears nose and spots are all typical of these type cows

    Stirring the pot on the LH/corriente topic

    yes you are exactly right about that! and i dont think he carries a red gene but what do you think would happen if he did? also am i way off base in thinking a charolais bull would be better for cows like her?

    here is one of the angus cross calves i was talking about, ill call her a longhorn cow i guess but this calf is out of a solid black angus bull

    Stirring the pot on the LH/corriente topic

    yea alot of them get smaller horns or scurs, also my thought process behind getting a charolais bull soon is half my cows are not solid colored alot of black and white and brown spots which those may be more of a longhorn type cow technically

    Stirring the pot on the LH/corriente topic

    now thats the part that sucks, for me alot of the calves come out with white coloring and they get docked pretty heavy. and the ones that are solid black sometimes have little scur horns and they are not #1 price. a couple months ago i sold 2 100% corriente steers together they averaged 385lbs...

    Stirring the pot on the LH/corriente topic

    mine are just on grass, hay, and mineral thats all they ever get except dewormer. weaning weights generally 450 for steers and 400 for heifers now im using just a plain jane angus bull and he could be alot better. next year im gonna buy a charolais bull to use on them. also these cows vary in...

    Stirring the pot on the LH/corriente topic

    so far i have only ever just weaned them off the cow and took them straight to the salebarn. i keep track of their ages and sell all my calves when they are 8 to 9 months old, i know what they weigh then but dont know the kill weight ends up being. i am keeping 2 this year to process so i will...

    Stirring the pot on the LH/corriente topic

    Stirring the pot on the LH/corriente topic

    if your talking about normal grass pasture my experience has been you can run 2 corriente cows to 1 beef cow. but definately not 5, i also never get 500lb weaning weights at 6 months but at 8 or 9 months youd get that easily

    Stirring the pot on the LH/corriente topic

    anyway back to the original post, id say if they are the solid colored type cow and they are bred buy them! even a straight corriente calf will bring 400 when you sell the calf. and if they are spotted id pass on them because of the dock youll get for off colored calves unless your using a...

    Stirring the pot on the LH/corriente topic

    if you ask me you are not being deceptive at all when your selling corriente beef cross calves because even though they look good you can tell what they are or at least tell they are not 100% a beef calf. the corrientes that arent 100% solid colored bred to just a regular black angus bull will...

    Average birth weight of angus vs charolais

    I was wondering if anyone knows what the national average is on the birthweight of a black angus vs a charolais bull? i assume charolais is higher but would like to know the difference

    BELTIE!

    if she will throw solid colored calves id say shell make you some good money but i thought they always had a belt no matter what bull you used. if thats the case ive passed on several good deals on belted cows. i bought a angus cow last year that also weighed 565 she weaned a 450lb bull calf...

    hmm thats different, i wish the ones here went ahead and weighed like that, not much but a few pounds can add up!

    Sold my Plummer cows' calves .

    im curious to why the weights you posted for the calves are uneven numbers like 504 and 521? everything ive ever sold is in increments of 5 pounds like 420 425 etc. thats the way the scales are
