[QUOTE="DiamondSCattleCo, post: 364837, member: 2862"] I don't have a sniff what your conditions are like, but I've got Shorthorn/Angus and Shorthorn/Simm crosses out in the pasture right now. My votes with the Shorthorn/Simm crosses, as they'll cross to either continental or another Brit breed and you'll get high gain calves. The cows will remain easy keepers. The Shorthorn/Angus crosses are great too, but to get the best market calves, you'll want to terminal cross to a continental to put some frame on 'em... If you're in an arid area, I'd skip the Simm cross, and look to something with a little more ear. Rod [/QUOTE]
