[QUOTE="topsquar, post: 243477, member: 3634"] Depends on the operation, large herd of heifers first calvers I would go limousin if you have 30 cows on a small Ranch you could use a higher birth weight bull if you have the time to watch over them, charolaise latter maturing then either Gelbvieh or Limousin, Limousin more moderate fram , not realy impressed with modern Simmi, watered down Angus genetics, maybe original would be a better pick for crossing with e.g Angus,=black baldies , Gelbvieh are only good if you have top class country as soon as it gets tough they turn into bags of bones, bigger framed cattle e.g Charolaise are higher maintenance, need better feed/more of it, Charolaise cows are not good do,ers. Feed conversion to muscle with early maturing and a moderate fram with hardiness you cant beat Limousin. ;-) [/QUOTE]
