[QUOTE="BC, post: 656583, member: 67"] What is the big deal about having a dairy cross for a mother cow. He is in Florida which usually has ample forage. After their first calf, they can be bred to a heavy muscled bull terminal cross for a very market acceptable calf. Here in East Texas, we have used Holstien X Brahman and Jersey X Brahman cows for years. When they are bred to Angus or Hereford bulls, these heifers can be kept for replacements fhat will have good milking ability. We can do this because of forage availibility. Areas west of I-35 in Texas and the western states do not have the forage resources to do this. [/QUOTE]
