[QUOTE="MoGal, post: 698227, member: 1346"] I think its a win-win situation whichever you choose. A black angus would give you white/smoky calves with black noses. Rattails can also result. Unfortunately the rattails are docked because as we all know, the tail is the prime part of meat. I'm being facetious here. A red angus would give gold colored calves (probably some solid red as well, I've been getting 2 gold to 1 red with a char x red poll)... a hereford would give gold colored calves. I would use the hereford. You could retain the heifers of that cross and they make good momma cows. Them gold colored cows look really nice in a pasture. [/QUOTE]
