[QUOTE="yellowRock, post: 8060025, member: 147414"] This is exactly what we are doing, although we're looking to move towards a 3 way cross fleck/Scandinavian red/holstein type animal. Using conventional fleck semen instead of angus/bb on older cows that I'd like a heifer from but don't want to use sexed. If a heifer comes out, great, if not well the bull calf isn't worthless We also have a hereford stock bull we use for sweeping up heifers and the odd cow we have difficulty getting in calf to AI. The fleckvieh calves are generally 10-15 kilos heavier than the hereford, although that's probably down to gestation length. [/QUOTE]
