[QUOTE="BRAFORDMAN, post: 805244, member: 14817"] I decided on what to do. I will choose the cows then get a bull to fit them I am going to breed my brangus to my black white face braford and my herefords to my black angus bull. As far as the third herd. I am going to get some half angus british white heifers and some black angus heifers in the summer. They half british white black angus heifers are black. And the cross makes darn good cows. Half blood british white cows bred to bulls of other breeds will not throw british white marked calves most of the time. I may breed them to a hereford bull. Not sure in that yet. I will also keep any promising heifers from this years calf crop. Tiger stripe,black angus plus,smokies,black white face and anything black is what sells good in texerkana where our calves go. I do not mind having these three different herds because i can switch bulls to what ever the market is demanding. My braford cross herd was mostly the braford bulls daughters from black baldie and super baldie cows they were the best cows I had. He is the only crossbred bull I will ever use. He was born on my place and will die on my place. He is a true grass fed bull. He is about 2700 pounds. And he keeps his condition on grass. He does not fall off during the winter or while breeding cows. When he is not with cows he is not fed. He eats hay and grass and some cubes to bring him up.He was raised on grass . HIs calves are born small and hit the ground growing The red angus plus if for sale now haha anyonw want to buy him? :lol: Thanks for the suggestions [/QUOTE]
