[QUOTE="okbob, post: 694730, member: 1211"] we bought some limo/longhorn heifers yrs ago and people refer to them as a longhorns heck even i do now because thats what they look like except their horns are somewhat smaller than a typical longhorn, we use a beefmaster bull which is paint so my calves have come out marked like a typical longhorn but they grow faster than the other calves (beefmaster) and they have all had a bigger bone structer and more body size than the mommas, i was actually impressed the way they have turned out, the man i sold some calves to is breeding these heifers runs a angus bull and so far he seems to be pleased with their calf rasing ability and the end results are some pretty nice calves but my point is a half way cross is not a beefy cow but a they are good mommas and give better calves as the cross goes on. this is just my experince and works for me. one more thing, they dont take as much hay to fill up as my beefmaster girls do [/QUOTE]
