Chianina x Gelbvieh

[basspro]

I was thinking of trying a Chianina x Gelbvieh or possibly a Chianina x Shorthorn cross but worried about calving problems. Does anyone know anything about these crosses and if so is there many birthing problems? Any info is well appreciated.

You been reading the Chiangus website?

I have checked out the Chiangus websites and am considering them but I haven't really seen anything about Chianina x Gelbvieh or Shorthorn crosses. I know the results that Chiangus produce and I'm impressed. I am always looking to try and get an edge.

He was asking about Chianina.

No shi t. Have you read the website I mentioned? Seems like crosses were mentioned.

No need to get hostile. I just want to know of any problems people are having with these crosses. I am looking to run some new breeds. I currently run about 70 head of Limousin x Angus cross.

Didn't realise I got hostile with you. When was that?

You seem to have a good mix right now.

What about the website?

I have checked out several chiangus websites, is there one in particualr you are speaking of? However, I really have no questions in regards to Chiangus.

No, I haven't read the website you mentioned. In case you have a hard time with the English language, I will gently point out that the original post asked about Chianina x Gelbvieh and Chianina x Shorthorn. No mention of Chiangus.

basspro: Sorry, I can't help you on this matter. Perhaps someone less hostile will come along soon.

Thanks VanC

I looked and can't find the one I was thinking about.

I like a Lim angus cross. How are yours doing? Why are you thinking about a change?

I plan on keeping my Limangus

Seems as I'm the bad guy. Good for you as you were the first to start. Check your PM.

Chiangus, maine, shorthorn in any % is usually a good cross.
I've never heard of a Gelbvinina

I haven't heard or read about a Chianina x Gelbvieh either that is why I made this post. I don't want to spend the time and money trying to cross the two if it causes nothing but problems. Being a biologist I am always looking at traits and genetics from many breeds. If no one has any personnal experience or knowledge about this particular cross then I might just have to try it and see for myself what kind of pros and cons come along with this cross. I was also thinking about Chianina x shorthorn cross as well.

There are a lot of really nice club calves w/ Chi influence(Angus or Maine) and Shorthorn in them
