[QUOTE="AllForage, post: 992049, member: 14878"] That may be so.. but as I have always said " Big bag... Big calf". In other words.. more milk.. more growth. But, you also have to have the genetics in em to make em grow. Angie, as far as the full blood limi cows being bad.. dont know about that, because all of my cows are either full-blood angus, or Limflex. Worst temperamented cows I ever had was two tiger striped ones. ONe was worse than the other. Had one run me around my truck three times before I jumped in the back! She didnt even have a calf at that time.. but she could sure put one out each year, that was a dandy.[/quote] I guess some would reply with "big bag..... big feed bill or big maintenance or big no breed back" I had a jersey cow raise up a Herf cross naturally and when he was weaned, the milk fat just melted off and he looked very much like his contemporaries. Guess what, she was drawn down a lot more than the other cows and took a lot more to get her back. She failed to breed back the next year. [/QUOTE]
