[QUOTE="whitecow, post: 786051, member: 8638"] It's absolutely OK to breed her to Charolais. Just be careful to choose a calving ease/low birth weight bull. All of the semen studs have some calving ease sires available. ABS has Doc Silver, Genex has Bluegrass and others. Bovine Elite has a large selection. Look for Calving Ease Direct EPDs of >8.0 and BW EPDs that are negative. Pay attention to the accuracies of the EPDs also. Try to choose a proven bull with accuracies >0.85 for those traits. [/QUOTE]
