I love that one...lovinglife said:
As a kid, we had a half holstein, half angus cow. (She herself was a product of a 1st time dairy heifer bred to an angus bull for a smaller birth weight 1st calf). She had all the best traits of each breed. Her name was Molly and the BEST cow ever! Each time she was bred and calved, we purchased another calf too - and she raised both of them. The "foster" calf varied - sometimes it was a beefer, sometimes a holstein. Those holstein steers just are all bone...but as it was basically a freebie to raise, we still came out ahead (we had a 40 acre farm and about 20 acres of pasture).
