[QUOTE="edrsimms, post: 698524, member: 10970"] The charolais are known to be low marbling or high lean whatever you prefer and too framey, yet with decent growth potential. I would stay away from Red Angus as they are slow growth- which we don't need. Horned Hereford would work really well, as I am not a Mutant Polled Hereford enthusiast as they tend to be light muscled with a big difference in carcass quality compared to the original version. Black Angus sired calves would work well too in order to improve frame scores and vastly improve carcass quality. Most Blk Angus sired calves will not be smoky in color --so you don't have to worry about that. Whatever terminal sire you choose don't buy it without a Ultrasound for REA etc..... On blk Angus use "the middle of the road" sires on CED. Ed [/QUOTE]
