heterozyous the only free thing in this business other than a cap from the feed sellsman

I would like to see this study repeated with Red Angus and perhaps some other British Breeds like Shorthorn, South Devon, Welsh Black etc.
Another idea is to use Hereford Bulls on continental cross cows like Charolais or Simmental. The Angus people have had this market pretty much to themselves. I have seen Hereford work well in these situations as long as the right bull was selected.
What do you Hereford breeders think?

See the post about Holden's sale today! Selling bulls at prices like they got must mean Hereford bull are breeding cows somewhere and apparently there's money in it! The H in my name is because my name is Holden but those guys don't claim me!

we are running hereford bulls on on simm angus cows the calves damn near hit the ground growing little son of a guns too. when i find another pasture i d like to buy about 20 head of red angus heifers cross them with hereford bulls and make some red baldy replacements . sometimes a guy just gets tired of looking at black cattle or maybe just me but black sells around here so give the buyer what they want.
