[QUOTE="whitecow, post: 1363382, member: 8638"] My family has been raising Charolais cattle for over 40 years. About 8 yrs ago we started breeding our Char heifers to Wagyu bulls. The beef from those F1s was the best I had ever tasted. So, I bought some fullblood Wagyu. Now we have about 120 fullblood Wagyu, a bunch of Wag x Char cross and about 200 Char. We put Fullblood Wagyu embryos in all of our Char heifers and clean them up with a Wagyu bull. Absolutely zero calving problems. My advice would be to breed your heifers to Wagyu to see if you like it. As others have said, you will take a hit on weaning weights but the Wagyu will vastly improve the quality of the carcass. We have harvested dozens of Wag x Char steers and every one has graded prime and better. You could check with these guys in Florida...they might buy your calves: [url]http://jackmanwagyubeef.com/[/url] [url]http://www.artisanwagyu.com/[/url] [/QUOTE]
