[QUOTE="stocky, post: 125540, member: 1150"] The reasons may change depending on how long you keep your calves. If you sell them at the sale barn off the cow or as weaned calves you would do well to put a charlois bull with your red based cows and a black bull with your other colored cows. Out of the red based cows you will get a yellow, top dollar calf from the charlois bull. Out of the other colored cows, you will get a top selling black calf. If you put a charlois bull with black cows you get a smoky calf and some rat tails and they do not sell as well. If you put a black bull with the red cows you sacrifice weight gain and the black calves do not sell better than the yellow calves in alot of areas. [/QUOTE]
