[QUOTE="Brandonm2, post: 139451, member: 2095"] I did not mean to insult the heifers by calling them "mongrels"; but when you have Charolais looking calves, Brangus looking calves, Angus cross calves, Angus?-Jersey? looking cross calves, etc all in the same contemporary group....."mongrel" is the word that comes to mind to describe the group as a whole. They look like put together stockyard cattle. That is actually pretty common in herds around here. Your bull is half the genetics in your calf crop and after one generations your last two bulls are 75% of your calf crop and the resulting calf crop is reasonably uniform no matter what the original herd looked like.
