[QUOTE="Peace, post: 1762766, member: 41443"] Interesting. I read on a forum that was UK/EU based that guys were breeding this cross for sucklers. I'm guessing a suckler is what we call a nurse cow. I'm guessing the added milk production was a help for the Hereford and the added width was to beef up the Holstein. Either way, I just kind of found it curious that was really the only time I saw that cross. Most of the others used Angus on their 14 to 18 month heifers for calving ease. I think that cross bred to Angus might be a good one .... then again what do I know [/QUOTE]
