[QUOTE="Warren Allison, post: 1846677, member: 40587"] Red and rwf will bring more per lb, for the same weight calves than smokies, Chars, yellow, Hereford or Short Horn roan color for sure. But no red calf will ever bring the CAB premium. and some black calves won't, either. Talking with people on the red Charolais group, about my thoughts on breeding a red Char to black Simm X Chi-Angus , several said they'd like to sell me semen, but that Char on Simm won't make that much difference as far as growth goes, compared to just breeding Sim to SIm or Char to Char. 2 or 3 said that using the homo for red and polled Char, as a terminal cross on British cows, would result in a calf growing as big and fast, if not bigger and faster. One breeder said he mostly sells semen to commercial operations that have homo for black Angus or Black Hereford and that his 2nd biggest market is to commercial Brangus operations. Another said his red Charolais bull are popular with red Angus, Hereford , and red baldy operations. He said they like the deep red calves better than the diluted red or tan they'd get with white bulls, and he markets white bulls as well. [/QUOTE]
