Can using different breeds of bulls cause problems?

[QUOTE="Nesikep, post: 1209236, member: 9096"] Dun, you're definitely *educated*,.. just perhaps not schooled too much ;) I think you're totally right when you say it's getting uniformity out of a mixed group of cows that's the problem.. I think if you had a herd of similar looking and performing cows with 5 breeds in each one, and a good bull on them, you could still have decent uniformity.. at least good enough to keep nice groups to sell... For us we still have a couple cows with strong SH influence, and though it's getting rarer, we still have a calf once in a while that'll be separated out just because of some chrome. For that reason my replacement heifers now usually are solid red/gold, as much as I like a nice brockle or baldy. [/QUOTE]
