[QUOTE="VLS_GUY, post: 835828, member: 13182"] Anazazi, The breeds you mentioned that the Blonde D'Aquitaine came from were all for dual purpose and draft use. In fact some of these original blondes were imported into Canada (to improve maternal traits as the breed had fertility problems). They needed to improve growth and muscle in a hurry in order to become competitive and that is where using the Limo and Char bulls came in. This breed has cattle that look like Charolais or Limousin or in confirmation and color. A big variation in performance and conformation. The char influenced cattle have better growth. Maternal traits? forget about it. This is a terminal cross for carcass traits only. [/QUOTE]
