What's your system?I started this thread as a discussion as I run 400 sucklers with 80 followers currently. I run 16 stock bulls, 8 different breeds to get a variation of finishers and breeding heifers for my own replacements. I was a lim man with many of my herd sucklers sired by the lim and having 8 stock bulls at 1 point I’ve just put my last of the lim stock bulls away as they are too wild for my liking. Good cattle but the calving difficulty was getting harder every year. I also found the figures very much false. So I’ll now breed out the lim and the last of the calves born will be finished. I have both continental (finishers) and native (replacements) on the farm. And was just looking for everyone’s opinions on different breeds.
