[QUOTE="UG, post: 155710, member: 714"] My only suggestion is that you need to be sure and not use a Charolais bull with a high birth weight; some of those big ole white bulls sire some pretty big calves at birth, and some of the traditional LH cows are fairly small. Seems like a great way to add some muscle and extra growth to your calf crop. Though I don't have any experience with Longhorns, I recently sold a Gelbvieh bull to a guy who runs Longhorn and longhorn cross cows. I've also had another LH breeder stop by looking for some Gelbvieh females to run with his LH bull. Apparently there has been quite a bit of success crossing the LH and Gelbviehs. [/QUOTE]
