[QUOTE="Anonymous, post: 3995"] Cross breeding will give you the most hybrid vigour, the advantage is most effective in maternal traits but it still affects weaning weight. Try to choose a breed that is known for growth, simmental, charolais are most common around here. You need to choose a bull that will still have cows small enough so that your cows can calve out and have cows that you can afford to feed. I like an angus simmental cross but that just what works around here, simmentals have the growth and milk, both are good mothers and we select for calving ease for heifers.
