[QUOTE="farmerjan, post: 1386712, member: 25884"] We have a fair number of char cows and char x angus. The char cows are usually good mommas; tend to be more protective than the angus and maybe a little more high strung when younger but most are pretty decent dispositioned. They often wean off the bigger calves so they obviously milk good or the calves wouldn't have the weight to go along with the frames. Don't have any problem with them calving. Bred black, they have black or smokey calves and if they have a black nose they bring as much as the blacks. They will do more grazing in the sun and heat, along with the red cows, than the blacks. Don't have any more pinkeye problems than any other color. I'd take a char over a limi any day for disposition and if blacks didn't bring more here, we would have more red and char cows. [/QUOTE]
