[QUOTE="mrvictordomino, post: 782010, member: 14333"] [/quote] I m doing this all backwards :shock: I bought aged Hereford cows and put a BA bull on them. I saved the best heifers from the better milking cows and now I am putting a Gelbvieh bull on these black baldies... I know I will not win a weaning weight contest, but is there still hope for my herd? :help:[/quote] Sure if you use the right bull and your cows have the milk. Why not.
