[QUOTE="u4411clb, post: 1007451, member: 17248"] I have a few and I am starting to breed some pure bred Gerts to hereford bulls for my replacements. They make great mothers. The Hereford puts some width and fleshing ability on them. The Gert puts some fly and heat resistance and really knocks down the pink eye. The Gert provides the milk. Also the Hereford seems to work wonders on the disposition. I have a couple of Angus Gert Crosses that I have picked up at sales because people just don't seem to like them as well and I picked up 1 from a guy here on Cattle Today to me they are just as good if not better as the Herf cross but you can seem to get them allot cheaper. I put them in my Fall calving herd which is all black and they fit in right along with the Brangus and Chiangus and definitely milk better. As said by ALCOWMAN the Herf x Gert steer is going to get knocked but if the Angus x Gert steer doesn't have allot of extra leather or too much ear they can top the market at least in Alabama.
