[QUOTE="grubbie, post: 496995, member: 5478"] Nicely put, I agree. We calve in early spring here, heifers are good sized by then, and we use a low BW angus bull, or sometimes a Longhorn. Longhorns are a great heifer bull, takes all the worry out of it. Some folks have said that the calves are worthless, but we have always gotten very good prices out of ours. And even in the worst weather, them buggers hit the ground, jump up and start sucking. Even if they didn't sell well, you have just made a cow, and any live calf is better than a dead one. Besides, you get some really cute colored calves! [/QUOTE]
