I've been given some great info by a friend on here (not naming names ;-) ) on crossbreeding, but of course ye can't go on with info from just one source, 'cause ye need a bunch of different sources in order to make a GOOD (and solid) decision. (Sorry KNERSIE...oh, whoops!!...too late now... ;-) ...hope ye don't mind...)
Anyway, what's the best way to go, for someone like me:
1. Foundation herd are straightbred Herefords bred to purebred Angus bull to produce baldies (heifers and steers) that are sold for market (premium, obviously); buy replacement straightbred Herf heifers
OR
2. Foundation herd comprising of F1 Black Baldy cows bred to a terminal bull (either Simmental or Limousine(?)), and sell both steers and heifers for premium; buy replacement F1 heifers.
Thanks in advance...
Both if you have the room use number one to produce what you need for number two. Only on number two why not look at a char bull.
