I know a guy who used to AI Simm heifers with Piedmontese and he was very pleased with the calves which he kept through to finish.How good would they be on Angus and Simmental cross cows? Maybe take some of the fat out of them, maybe better with a blonde?
we used to have a piedmontese cow, beautiful tidy beast, her best cross by far was simmental.I know a guy who used to AI Simm heifers with Piedmontese and he was very pleased with the calves which he kept through to finish.
He later went to Blonde due to a poor selection of Piedmontese AI sires at the time.
Would the Piedmontese breed more consistently than a blonde? Always told the blonde was a mix of three breeds , so maybe not always as uniformed, is this right?
Would consider both breeds. Hopefully calving would be easier than the Charolais , maybe more profitable with more live calves?
tried to get a photo of his muscling - this one is 635kg@choochter has Baz which I feel are very similar to Pie and Par cattle in they produce a consistent shapey carcasse but can be a bit lean so are ideal to cross with an Angus, Hereford or Shorthorn. This plus the ease of calving would be a good reason to try one especially if you take your calves through to slaughter or have a good store market where the breeds are known.
