Hi Everyone,
I am new to the forum and excited to be here! We raise registered Beedmaster cattle in west central Missouri, but we are looking to diversify.
In our area black cattle are king as far as the market is concerned, so I'd like to explore some options of using either Angus or Black Simmental to cross with our Beefmasters. I am looking for a terminal cross primarily, however I wouldn't mind selling some replacement heifers in our area as well. Has anyone done a cross similar to this, and how did it work out? In our area people do not like eared cattle as well, and we are looking to hide some of the ear without giving up all the benefits of the Brahma influence.
Thanks!
Hunter
