[QUOTE="TheBullLady, post: 253069, member: 173"] Thanks for the comments everyone! Yes.. the top Simmental is definately a "traditional" type... and she milks like a Holstein! Always has a top notch calf, and is a very good "doer". Besides which, she doesn't suffer from the heat as much as her black sisters. I have to agree 100%.. I wish they were more popular, especially in the show ring. I think it's a waste of time to make every breed black, when they aren't traditionally that color. Although I do think you're going to see them going back to red. They are both out of the same bull... he's a son of Drake Stress Free ( G & L Avalanche) and a Franchise cow. The traditional red cow in the top picture is out of a bull called Red Brother, and a Abricot bred cow. I can't say enough about Abricot.. I've had a bunch of those cows, and they are fantastic. The solid black heifer is out of the same bull, and a 1/4 Fleck influenced black cow, that's probably one of the top in my herd. She's out of a bull called DFS The Business, which is a Great Guns Ferdinand son, and a Red Deck bred cow. [/QUOTE]
