[QUOTE="Massey135, post: 902935, member: 17234"] Those hereford/longhorn f1s will be wild colored. The only cross I would personally use a limo over char for terminal use would be on longhorn cows. They do a better job and uniforming the longhorn x calf. Just from longhorn x herds ive seen and passed by, the limo does a great job at covering the spots and stamping solid red calves. Uniformity is the reason I prefer a char over limo on random crossbred cows as all will express the diluter and with red limo being a recessive color- you'll get colors all across the board. If I wanted to create an F1 replacement starting with the longhorn, I would use a gert or brangus. No other breed that ive used will stamp their calves like these two composites. GERT x LONGHORN f1 X Fullblood LIMO= :2cents: :2cents: [/QUOTE]
