[QUOTE="AussieLim, post: 903790, member: 17520"] Hello, Many commercial cattle breeders in Southern Australia cross Char over mature Angus cows with great success. It makes use of hybrid vigour and adds muscle and yield to the progeny. One disadvantage of using Char is you will get mainly smokey grey calves which aren't always as easily marketable or preferred by buyers. Rather than using Charolais my tip would be to use Black Limousin. This will give you similar result but hold the marketable black hided coat that is sort after in the auction/market place. You can also use black Simmental but be selective as many of the modern day Black Simms don't have the same muscle patterns and punch to them as what Char or Limousin provides. Happy Cross-breeding :) [/QUOTE]
