[QUOTE="branxchar&charx, post: 124722, member: 436"] If all the cows have already had at least one calf, I would go with the charolais on the terminal sire. After the first calf, cows usually dont have a problem with a charolais calf, just dont go and pick out a bull with a HUGE birth weight. If you had a chance to look at the bulls that they were bred to, I would see about keeping a few heifers as replacements, if that is what you are going for and dont mind having a few black or whatever. BUT do not breed the heifers back to a charolais, especially since the heifers themselves arent charolais. [/QUOTE]
