[QUOTE="LegacyBreeder, post: 131071, member: 1747"] In my opinion, you will not go wrong using either color of Angus or a Hereford on your animals. Hereford x Beefmaster heifers are GREAT mama cows in my experience, and the baldy calves from your brangus would be big sellers. Then again, using any kind of Angus on them is gonna throw some beautiful calves that'll sell really well, too. Another alternative would be Charolais, but I'd hold off on using them until you know how your cows are gonna calve out. And even then I'd be really selective. Charolais are generally wonderful terminal sires, but they can sure mess up smaller cows and first calf heifers if used improperly. Of course, that can be said of any breed, but I digress. :P [/QUOTE]
