There was a university study (maybe Ohio, can’t remember) where they found that it you take a pure dairy breed vs a dairy/beef cross, the cross offspring is 26% bigger than the pure dairy.

Most Angus do not finish well on grass. They have been bred to finish on grain. The Angus Libby has done their work well to convince people that Angus is always the best.

The jersey steer we raised is the best beef we have ever tasted.

We are currently doing a side by side comparison. Raising a pure beef breed and a jersey beef cross. They are living their whole lives eating the same and sharing the same conditions.

Will k ow the results of that study in 6-18 months. Will have to look at my notes for when we plan to butcher.
