[QUOTE="AvisBrasil, post: 1789036, member: 43038"] We have had a bit of problem with flies and ticks- with pure breeds. We have crossed with hollandaise, gyr to get some better resistance. Even crossed with Jersey- but must be careful on delivery - of first calf of Jersey - calf may be to big to pass the jersey. Better wait until 2nd or 3rd calf before putting jersey with Brown Swiss Bull. They love cool weather and altitude above 3.000ft or better - Heat takes some strength from them. The heifers have the best easiest teats to milk- smooth. We have enjoyed 100% Brown Swiss bull with cross 3/4 Hollandaise and 1/4 Gyr Called “3x” or Three Cross down here and they sell well- “3x” Good milk- very reaistance- Docile [/QUOTE]
