[QUOTE="billy, post: 638712, member: 10194"] To answer your question about getting a black charolais angus cross. You need to get a registered/papered purebred Homozygous Black charolais bull. You can only get them in Canada right now but youll see them quickly in the states Three trees Ranch out of Georgia has some they bought from Canada and I have heard of some females going into Alabama also. Grace farms out of missouri has a few purebred black charolais out of Canada as well as some people down by Kansas. It will be the way to go pretty soon since the angus cross commercial breeders want to add frame and size to there commercial heard. The more pounds they can put on there calves = more$ in there pocket with still retaining the black hide. Talked to one breeder in Canada who uses these black bulls and he said he would not go back to the angus sires because he gets more weaning weight on his calves out of the black charolais bulls and in his words "they still sell calves by the pound". He also followed some of his calves through the feedlots and said ALL of the angus /black char calves were sold to the packers and went AAA and choice angus beef because they fit the criteria and had black hides which I found quite interesting.
