[QUOTE="stocky, post: 497064, member: 1150"] It depends on what you are going to do with the calves and where you live. If you are going to keep the calves for mama cows, I would go with a modern type, milky, black angus bull, then breed the black baldy offspring to a charolais starting with their second calf. If you are going to sell the calves as feeders, I would put a charolais bull with them for the yellow, high dollar feeder calves. If you are in the heat and humidity of the south you will probably need something with some brahma in it's ancestry to live in the heat, even though you will be giving up dollars on your feeders with the longer ears [/QUOTE]
