[QUOTE="Rustler9, post: 895690, member: 440"] Put a Charolais bull on your Longhorn cows, get yellow calves that will sell for every bit as much as a black calf at least here in our area. I have a friend who has been doing this for years. He sold a bull calf a couple of weeks ago here for $745. His neighbors who were laughing at him stopped laughing when he showed his check for 18 Char x LH calves. He paid $450 for the LH grade cow several years ago and she has made him money ever since. People here who are paying $1100 to $1400 a head for black heifers have to sell about three calves before the heifer is paid for. Then when the black cow is 10 years old it's time to grind her up. She's about too old to do anything with. Longhorn cows are in their prime at 10 years old. Guess it all depends on what you like though. [/QUOTE]
