    That's what I figured alright. You'll probably bring a bit of size and bone too, and a white dash on the forehead for generations.
    I've little doubt that the right Blonde bull would do a job for you but you'd have to get one with milk+ you could end up with a heifer with a lot of muscle.
    The Lim X Sim do make a decent cow though.

    yea i like the Simx cows, always have a few down the years, find them quiet and maternal and throw great ch calves, this is quiet pbnr lim cow and i think would make a smashing cross
