[QUOTE="Muddy, post: 1283016, member: 23532"] Convinced or just a guess? Shorthorns are a good maternal cattle, but I'm not sure about crossbreeding program especially with angus. Shorthorns have the least heterosis when crossbreeding with black Angus, out of various breeds. Some shorthorns didn't nick very well with most Angus cattle and the calves is just nothing to look at. Sometimes the hybrid vigor isn't there till it shows up in 3way cross. [/QUOTE]
