[QUOTE="StrojanHerefords, post: 1848748, member: 42988"] For a commercial herd the benefits of cross breeding are too great to ignore. I have had the idea to do a three breed maternal rotation cross using Hereford, Red Angus and Beefmaster AI, then cleaning up with a terminal continental bull. I would sort the cows based on phenotype to ensure that each mating is a fresh cross. All solid faced cows would be bred Hereford because a Hereford can’t sire a solid faced cow. If a white faced female is horned or shows ear she would be bred red angus. The polled red baldies would be bred Beefmaster. [/QUOTE]
