[QUOTE="kvcanes, post: 155635, member: 2937"] We have several cows that are red angus/red gelbvieh F1's and they are the real deal. They milk great, have a nice disposition, and add some frame to the calf. In addition, that cross provides you with a tremendous amount of flexibility. If you want to retain ownership and feed the cattle to finish, then the gelbvieh bloodlines will allow you to feed the calves to a higher out weight and the angus portion will help with carcus merit (depending on the bloodlines). If you want to raise replacement heifers, then you can cross them with any number of breeds and get a quality heifer. And if you want to sell the calves at weaning or shortly there after, then your going to sell calves that have some frame and will provide you with the pounds to sell and consistency within your calf crop. Of course these are generalizations assuming a good angus and good gelbvieh animal where used to create the cross. [/QUOTE]
