[QUOTE="MikeC, post: 494563, member: 1604"] My neighbor has more problems with the Brangus Bull's calves' BW's than he does the Char calves. He also used to run Angus bulls but they turned out as dinks and din't press down hard enough on the scales at weaning. Imagine that. Yes the calves registered with the Char Assoc. are heavier on average than some other breeds because they are out out of registered cows that might be a little larger. But when bred to a good mid-sized commercial cow they fall in there about average. In fact, one of my local bull customers has changed completely over to Chars from Brangus bulls on his 1200 mama cows because of less calving problems and the advantage of pounds in the feedlot and at weaning. Been there done all of that. For about 40 years now. :roll: [/QUOTE]
