Hi everyone! I'm new here, and have questions on which breed is best to cross my Hereford/Angus cross cow with. We bred her (ai) to a Galloway bull and got a pretty nice bull calf from her (black one in photo). The steer is now 26 months old and about the same size as mom (red in the photo). I kind of expected him to be bigger since the bull was 2200 pounds. We had one more straw from that bull we bred her back to, and are awaiting the results. Genex doesn't carry any Galloway bulls anymore, so the next breed back will be a different breed. We have just the one cow, and all calves are being raised for our freezer. We live in Wisconsin, so cold tolerance is important. What breed should we choose? Thanks in advance for your help!
