[QUOTE="Busterz, post: 548082, member: 7999"] If it were me I'd probably try to find some red brangus cows and use a polled hereford bull. (the red brangus cows would have heat tolerance and red ones would have little more heat tolerance than the black ones I would think. The polled hereford bull should be pretty gentle and a decent one would add some muscle. That cross should produce some nice red baldy calves, the heifers would probably make pretty good mommas too. Or if you didn't want anything with brahman in it, I'd try to find some lighter colored cows, like charolais or red gelbvieh or braunvieh. Then try to find a gentle red or black angus bull. (I think the lighter color will help with the heat and then you could put a british bull on your continental cows for some nice cross calves.) [/QUOTE]
