[QUOTE="Dusty, post: 472569, member: 4585"] F-1 bulls in my herd are Purebred Angus x Purebred Charolais.. Both ways as Females to Males... Popularity of them are going through the roof in the mid to south states... The average of 20 head at our sale was $2630 with the Purebred 25 Angus being $3110 average and 65 head of Charolais averaged $3420. Similiar Results at the local Fink Beef Genetics sale, where the F-1's actually out averaged the Purebred Angus and Charolais.. What we are getting from 80% solid black cows are dark pigmented skin, with 50% being the extreme smoke calves... Extremely dark and 1/4 being light smoke.. we are still getting an occassional light red from a few baldies, the hereford is coming out in that light red... One thing i am very pleased with is solid pigmented skins, in both the Charolais and Angus breed you can get spotted pigments on bags or tailhead... That is not showing through in the 2nd and 3rd calf F-1 Females... We have two feedlots that have been buying the calves off the F-1 bulls directly out of our customers pasteurs and reports are saying high high high G&Y... [/QUOTE]
