[QUOTE="greybeard, post: 1496708, member: 18945"] A. LH already have great maternal traits/instincts...that's one of their attributes. b. If this would have been a good idea, Tom Lassiter & his father would have used LH instead of Brahman, tho there has always been some speculation that Tom's father did play around a bit with another (4th) breed in the woodpile when he first started developing the BM.. c. If your beefmasters don't already have plenty of maternals, then maybe you need to cull a little more/better? d. The offspring gonna be one ugly thing to have to look at IMO. e. The composite Beefmaster is already a 3way. I don't think you get enough out of making it into a 4way, then going back with an Angus as something has to get diluted along the way. f. I sure hope you aren't going to be sacrificing docility with the Beefmaster X LH...that could make working in open pasture right after calving time an interesting sight. G. There are 6 essentials...not 8. [/QUOTE]
