[QUOTE="Super Baldie, post: 414858, member: 6808"] I have a herd of perdominatly Super baldie cows(1/2 santa gertrudis and 1/2 hereford cows). I am currently running a real good black angus bull with them and producing some really nice heifers that i am keeping back to replace and add to the cow heard. I am getting close to maxing out on the number of cows i can support, don't want to bred the black bull back to his daughters and will be looking at buying a bull that will produce heavier calves at weaning. The black bull is great for producing heifers to keep, and his bull calves are real nice too, but I'd likesome heavier weights to sell at weaning. looking for good advise on what is the best terminal sire to run with this heard. My cow heard is young but I'd like to keep an exceptional heifer now and then to add to the heard. I know you can't have it all i.e. ( low birth weights, heavy weaning weights etc.) but that should't keep a guy from trying. thanks for the advise, Super Baldie [/QUOTE]
