Now that a few of you have had a chance to answer the cattle IQ question I figure I'd post the answers. The answers are taken from several scientific studies. Note: the weight of a mature bull will vary based on many different factors (climate, illness, genetics, nutrition, etc.) these...

Just for fun here is a list of ten various cattle breeds. List these cattle from largest to smallest based on the average mature weights of the bull: Shorthorn Beefmaster Dexter Piedmontese Chiangus Simmental Belgian Blue Chianina Highland Gelbvieh

I haven't heard or read about a Chianina x Gelbvieh either that is why I made this post. I don't want to spend the time and money trying to cross the two if it causes nothing but problems. Being a biologist I am always looking at traits and genetics from many breeds. If no one has any...

VanC, Already looked at that site.

I plan on keeping my Limangus

Thanks VanC

I have checked out several chiangus websites, is there one in particualr you are speaking of? However, I really have no questions in regards to Chiangus.

No need to get hostile. I just want to know of any problems people are having with these crosses. I am looking to run some new breeds. I currently run about 70 head of Limousin x Angus cross.

I have checked out the Chiangus websites and am considering them but I haven't really seen anything about Chianina x Gelbvieh or Shorthorn crosses. I know the results that Chiangus produce and I'm impressed. I am always looking to try and get an edge.

I was thinking of trying a Chianina x Gelbvieh or possibly a Chianina x Shorthorn cross but worried about calving problems. Does anyone know anything about these crosses and if so is there many birthing problems? Any info is well appreciated.
