[QUOTE="Nesikep, post: 1177476, member: 9096"] Welcome, first of all. You seem to know a fair bit, I'll just tell you the best bull I've had yet for making good mommas was a Gelbveih (the one in my avatar), I had a lot of shorthorn in my herd, and the frames were getting really big, and the GV x SH have done very well for me so far, oldest I have is 5 and has been raising the best calves of the crop right from the get-go. As chance would have it, my current bull is a Limo, and I'll be able to tell you much more about how that works out next spring and fall, I think he'll really 'click' with the GV cross cows, but might have a bit much frame to make an impressive animal out of the SH crosses. After you see the results of a good GV bull in the form of meaty butts and backs, it's hard to go back to some other breeds, especially if you don't have exceptional bulls. I'm a big fan of long-lived cows, I just put down one of my best cows (arthritis) last fall after 16 calves, and her calves just kept getting better. Good luck :) I'm going to guess that except for the Char influenced cattle, the herd is mostly black? [/QUOTE]
