[QUOTE="cypressfarms, post: 143748, member: 2653"] Just wanted to hear some replies. With all of the breeds to choose from, it's getting amazing what can be done. I agree totally with a uniform calf crop, color included. I'm toying with the idea of using an angus or angus plus on beefmaster cows. Even though about using a semiangus bull on beefmaster cows. I've seen some nice semiangus bulls, but that would throw the angus content way below what I would want. The main point I wanted was to keep the angus blood at least 50%, while having the rest a mixture of breeds that would suit my area and provide growth (Brahman, simi, hereford,etc.) This would give me a uniform calf crop, with enough angus blood, and they would be black. (assuming using an angus bull or angus plus bull). [/QUOTE]
