Gelbvieh cows are more efficient.

[QUOTE="elwapo, post: 336485, member: 5497"] I currently have a homozygous polled red herd sire TJB Absolute that is an Icon son. He was originally purchased for performance, but his calving ease and birth weight EPD,s have become very good CE 114 acc.31 and BW -1.0 acc.58. He has done a great job for us but he is a little too big for heifers so we AI him to the heifers and run him with cows. Our black bull is a Beretta son out of the Cocoas Kati flush cow owned by the Colvers'. Both of those bulls throw very clean fronted calves that are also loosely built. We also have a couple of unproven bulls purchased last year. we are going to need another black herd sire this year. I have a very good following of commercial buyers here. Gelbvieh spread like a rash .....once one outfit gets gelbvieh bulls and the neighbours see their calves they end up buying gelbvieh bulls too. [/QUOTE]
