[QUOTE="Headless chicken, post: 4567574, member: 2582"] I run a few pure flecks. I love them but suspect the deeper I go into breeding my own we will end up with fleck x Holstein x red. They were intilailly our answer to not wanting to Holsteins or grazing rats. Being a flying herd we were finding it difficult to get what we wanted on the middle ground which weren’t just low fertility spring calving slips. With all that said I do plan to keep some pure probably around 20-25 animals (roughly 10% of the herd when we hit target numbers) simply to provide me sweeper bulls and maybe as another income stream. We will be using some crossbred bulls this year Simmental x fleck but next year will be the real tell when we will have a Holstein fresian x fleck working [/QUOTE]
