What is so good about the Black Baldie suckler cow?

Hybrid Vigour = Increased performance & output at no extra cost. Good Temperament = Ease of handling and low stress. Longevity = Longer breeding life and lower replacement costs. Hardy = Able to out winter without concentrates and hold her flesh. Efficient = Good foragers and feed converters eating substantially less silage daily than their cross Holstein counterparts. Easy Calving = Vigorous calves that get up and suckle quickly. Tight udders and small teats = Reduced labour suckling new born calves. Cows with the right amount of good quality milk for fast growing calves. Easy Fleshing = Progeny finish quickly at good weights. Add to this the improved cull value for cow. Recognizable = Calves consistent in type and quality for even sale groups. The Males = Growthy, high value steers providing tender & tasty beef which qualifies for many Angus or Hereford premium beef schemes. Self Replacement = It's simple to maintain a Black Baldie type herd by continuous crisscrossing each generation with Hereford or Angus sires.

Increased Hybrid Vigour makes the Angus X L1 Hereford tops for Performance & Efficiency.
