[QUOTE="Boot Jack Bulls, post: 1466517, member: 24016"] You could certainly breed those Limi X Dairy heifers to a calving ease Limi or Angus bull. I have zero experience with the cross as mommas though. The fact is though, you will continue to sell the offspring at a discount for at least a couple of generations to breed the dairy look out of the calves. If you are selling at a stockyard, be prepared for a dock on price. It really comes down to quality VS quantity. You may be better off buying a few head less of some good F1 beef bred females that have a documented history from a known seller than buying some unknowns for a bargain. What is the end game of your program? Do you want to get to the end game faster or cheaper? [/QUOTE]
