[QUOTE="cow pollinater, post: 833695, member: 14661"] We can't really make a blanket statement about the fertility of certain breeds based on the observations of a few herds. You may have Hereford genetics known for fertility and Angus genetics from average or below fertility. You may also have Angus cattle putting everything they have into raising a calf while the Herefords ain't doin' much and have enough left over to get pregnant faster in which case your management comes into play... give the best cows what they need to do what they need to do instead of favoring the dinks that don't perform. From your example, longhorns or straight brahmas would be the BEST cows in the world- they get pregnant no matter what... There's a little more to it than that. [/QUOTE]
