[QUOTE="Northern Rancher, post: 366467, member: 5898"] We use South Devon as the terminal cross on our Angus/Hereford cows. When we A'I the best angus cows get bred Angus or Horned Hereford-the better baldy cows get A'I'ed Angus then everything else we use South Devon on. We have a few South Devon cows but it's hard to find a Devon bull that throws as good of udders as I like so we tend to feedout all the heifers. We sell on a carcass grid and do quite well-you really can't tell the calves apart in the feedlot. We bought a Black South Devon bull from the Midland test did us alot of good. Prairie Granite 112G was his name-I think he's still a trait leader for birth weight in the Devon breed. [/QUOTE]
