[QUOTE="randiliana, post: 564136, member: 2308"] Charolais is one of the most popular terminal sires in North America. They add muscle and growth to the calf crop. And I have not heard that they grade any worse than any other breed. In fact, tan calves are often some of the higher selling calves in many sales. Perhaps there is a difference in the types we have here, than the types you have over there. As for calving issues, they can be a problem (but, then that is true of any breed), but if you have knowledge you can easily avoid that. There are many, many bulls out there that will give good calves without having any calving trouble. And as I type all this, we do not even use Charolais in our herd. But, if I were to start over again, I would use Shorthorn/Red Angus or Shorthorn/Gelbveih cows and breed them Char for terminal calves. [/QUOTE]
