[QUOTE="Cattle Rack Rancher, post: 84497, member: 245"] There are lots of guys up here who have those great big Charolais-Simm cows. They eat about twice as much as the British breeds. The calves are slow to get up and suck and quite often need to be pulled and helped to get on their feet. I guess some guys like high maintenance women, too. For my money, I'd rather run more calves and more cows on the same chunk of land. I bet I produce at least as many pounds of calf per acre on the same land and I get paid more because the price per pound is higher for the lower weight animals. I don't think you need to worry about Charolais overtaking the Angus any time too soon. [/QUOTE]
