[QUOTE="Warren Allison, post: 1840054, member: 40587"] I think everyone has, Newcomer. You will get as good a claves, if not better using a black Simm or SimmAngus bull, and the calves will sell for more per pound than your Char calves have been. Lots and lots of Simm and SimmAngus in the SE....a lot more than there are Charolais. Dunno how many bulls you are running now, but if you want to tighten up that 150 day calving window, I'd run 10 bulls on 300 cows. We kept anywhere from 100-120 Corr cows that we bred to mostly Brangus or Ultrablack bulls. They calved in February. We'd put in 5-6 bulls around tax day ( April 15), and pull them Memorial Day weekend. 6-7 weeks. Never had one calve later than the 1st week of March. Just go ahead and get you a Simm or two, and see how they perform against the Char calves. [/QUOTE]
