Hatcreekcattle --- did I read your suggestion correctly? You essentially said to avoid breeding the Corriente cow to a Beefmaster bull due to potential calving difficulties and instead breed her to a Charolais so as to get a small calf, and if the resulting calf is a heifer it will have plenty of milk for it's own progeny??
Not trying to pick a fight, so to speak, but that sure is contrary to "conventional wisdom", isn't it? Generally speaking, Charolais bulls are hard calvers, Corriente cows are smallish, and Charolais are not particularly known as a good milking/maternal breed --- right?
Welcome to the forum --- say hello to Woodrow and Newt for me.
