[QUOTE="Warren Allison, post: 1798704, member: 40587"] But if you breed them to a neighbor's bull, you gonna have half of them BWF with almost no ear, and half that are RWF with no ear. . Neither will bring as much as those Brangus x Herford would. You have a very popular cross, one of the best selling, with the Br x herf. Even if you sold the 5 heifers for $5k, and bought 3 bred Brangus or two 3 n 1 Brangus deals, you'd probably be money a head. IF you [I]did[/I] keep those black baldy heifers, I would breed them to a Brangus bull if the neighbors had one, before I would a Hereford. That would be a better choice for me here in north Ga, but may not be for you in NE Texas, thought the latitude and climates are very similar. [/QUOTE]
