[QUOTE="Brandonm22, post: 848378, member: 7645"] Yes a three way rotation where all three crosses get saved as replacements gets screwy real fast. Probably the best case scenario there would be Hereford x Angus x Simmental (the new black polled Simmies). Even if you managed it all perfectly so the right cow got bred to the right breed bull (and most don't) you would still be marketing three way cross calves that are well over 50% Hereford over 50% Simmental, and over 50% Angus. That is a lot of genetic variation to come off of one trailer, though in the example given they should be all polled and 90+% Black. An easier way to do much the same thing would be a two way cross of Hereford x SimAngus. [/QUOTE]
