go with Simmental you could keep the heifers or sell them as replacements, if your intention is to sell everything by the pound go with Charolais or Limousintrav":11tscmtl said:i am wanting info on crossbreeding with shorthorn cattle good and bad. i tring to make a choice between shorthorn herford, simm or braunvih all input please. i live in ky if that helps and using a brangus bull.

both Simbrah and Brangus (RED or Black) will be ok, even Brafords or Brahmousin, that will be your choice but to keep your heifers undoubtedly I will suggest Simbrah
