After much research, I'm taking delivery of a 24 month old Gelbvieh/Angus X bull next week. He's from a full blooded Gelbvieh cow and a full blooded black Angus bull. He will be replacing my black Angus herd bull of 5 years.
From what I've read, the G/A cross should provide some good calves.
Since the new bull is 50/50, will I still get most of the benefits of the G/A cross? What percent of Gelbvieh will his calves be?
I'm a small cow/calf operation with 30 black Angus cows.
Thanks
