[QUOTE="Uncle Dude, post: 1294927, member: 13134"] Thought about doing what you are doing myself, just wanted to see if you were getting the same numbers I was guestimating. How much additional profit do to you predict using 1/2 Char LH cows instead of LH cows since you can run a few more LH per acre and LH are cheaper replacements? From what I have read you still get the LH calving ease, longevity, fertility, disease & heat resistance with the LH X cow plus less horns. Hard to beat showing up at the sale with 40% more calves and only taking a 15% cut on sale price! That is guestimating a 1/3 more calves from 1/3 more LH cows per acre who calve 99% live calf no matter what, compared to traditional beef cow that would have a 10% open calving season, plus only needing 1/2 as many replacements cows since LH produce in to their late teens.
