[QUOTE="Taurus, post: 1160913, member: 18288"] Many folks has gotten away from the fleck simmentals because of the nightmares of calving huge calves, bulls being cow killers and their mature size. My late grandpa raised the fleck cattle many years ago for show and they were huge cows. Huge calves too at birth and at weaning time. He didn't do well at the sale barn with purebred fleck calves because the buyers don't want full continental calves. I was at a local fair recently and I can't believe there are lot of black simmi and simangus being used as show cattle. They have super nice calves and there is chance that they will out weight your typical black baldy calf. That is why black simmental and simangus are getting popular because they will give you bigger calves when crossed to either Angus and Hereford cows. [/QUOTE]
