[QUOTE="Ted M, post: 6885356, member: 16272"] I'd totally agree with you. We got into stabilisers 5 years ago and retained the heifers to build up numbers. When we lost some rented land a couple of years ago it was the continental crosses we already had that went when we had to reduce numbers. We've had a couple of bull's, both been fine but our current one is daft as a brush and I'd be sorry to ever see him go. As for cow temperament we find if we do get the odd narky one it's always the lighter sandier coloured ones rather than the deep red coloured. Generally though found them to be quiet and easy to handle. We finish the bulls, last years are going now. Killing out so far at 56%, around 400kg dead and grading u minus. I don't think from memory we've ever had to assist anything calving that has presented normally. Just a couple which were coming backwards. [/QUOTE]
