This seems like the path. https://www.cattletoday.com/search/459811/?q=rx3&o=relevance With black Holsteins instead of Red not 100% sure on the color, but the cross has worked before. Not trying to start a breed, just to find a use for what I can get

...time black Holstein heifers to Herefords for lower birth weight and easier calving for the first time. 90+% are black white face, some are red. My buddy buys them as bucket calves. Plan is to breed the heifers back to Angus, either black or red. While this used red Holstein search the forum...

OMG - I forgot about the RX3 - that's an oldie goldie.. Everyone keeps trying to re-invent the wheel.

They have been doing this since the 1970's only using red Holstein instead of Jersey. Has its own breed registry, even. They are called RX3.

Very interesting. Called my uncle(person from my original post) and he hadn’t heard of them and neither had I.

Recent discussion on another list regarding Choctaw Chief 373 reminded me of the RX3 composite, developed by Pioneer Cattle Co., back in the 70s; 1/4 Hereford, 1/4 Red Holstein, 1/4 Red Angus. Don't guess I heard of them until sometime in the mid- to late '90s, and haven't heard anything about...

a web search only turns up old stuff. did find this but the number is disconnected. American RX3 Cattle Registry, (800) 215-0763 also found Mid America RX3 Cattle Co. Mid America RX3 Cattle Co., HC 75, Box 158, Sturgis, SD 57785 Phone: (605)347-3319; (800) 215-0763 FAX: (605)347-2207...

I think I might have exchanged an email with you a few years back. I think my father still has a few aged RX3 in the group here in Iowa, I say group because herd would imply large numbers. Due to his age my father has been reducing the number of cows he has and due to lack of RX3 genetics he...

...a couple of 'composite' beef breeds developed, with Holstein in the mix - Hays Converter was/is a mix of Holstein, Brown Swiss, and Hereford; RX3 was developed from red& white Holsteins bred to Herefords, with those F1s bred to red Angus. So...you're not exactly reinventing the wheel...

A rancher at Terry Mt. had RX3 cattle 25-30 years ago. They got big milked well but just took to much feed and were not efficient enough for this range country. Don't think they ever got enough of them to call them a breed,so they were just breeding composite to composite, Mcneil at the station...

What's an RX3. I thought that was a Mazda car with a wankel engine

Lol, and I thought you were a walking encyclopedia of everything bovine. They are 1/4 Hereford, 1/4 Red Holstein, and 1/2 Red Angus. Check them out. http://www.ansi.okstate.edu/breeds/cattle/

i think i will pass on the offer. Yeah, i actually almost put them on, but I didn't remember anybody ever really mentioning them on here so I passed. I only added in the RX3 to see if they still existed.

Of course, it's the 3waycross :cowboy: Seriously we are looking at something similar and should have the first calves on the ground soon. Gelbvieh/ShorthornxRed Angus. Hoping for polled solid or almost solid red calves and mommas that milk real well. Also hopefully no darned calves to pull.

Hereford. Angus. Red Angus. Shorthorn. RX3. Then x breeding with: Gelbvieh. Tarentaise. Simmental. Charolais. Now: Gelbvieh/Angus and Red Angus, now called Balancers, but we used them before that. Simmental/Angus and Red Angus, now called Simm/Angus. Tarentaise/Angus and Red Angus...
