Iwas wondering about when she would be able to breed, also if any could give me general info on this mixed breed cow it would be appreciated, this is my first attempt at raising cows and i need all the help i cann get.

You should breed her at about 15 months or (I would guess) 800 lbs. She should turn out to be a relatively large cow with excellent milk. She may, unless she is being dry lotted or fed a lot of supplement, be a rather rangy cow and not carry the flesh that a straight beef cow would. When she calves she should be able to feed two calves without any strain, but she will require good groceries to do it.
