Highland Longhorn cross??

[KSALguy]

reading the post earlyer on the two LongHorn Heifers i started thinking.....i know that can be very dangerous lol,

if you took some Long Horn cows and bred them to a Highland Bull that would be a rather enteresting cross, any ideas?

It would be an excellent cross, and it has been done and I would do it also if I had the opportunity.

I did have a few and found it to be a good mix. I'm sure you understand you will still have a small carcass and the meat will be quite lean. I had no problems with their temperament. The cross bred heifers were very good mothers and raised very nice calves and mothered and milked as you would expect of longhorns or highlands.

i figured they would be lean, as the longhorn is a very lean animal but the Highland is also lean but has a good flavor i am told, besides lean is good,

also i liked the fact that both breeds are hardy range type cattle and can get alot of their diet from pasture and brush,
