Best Answer

A Balancer heifer is a heifer that is made up of 1/2 Angus and 1/2 Gelbvieh, or 3/4 Angus and 1/4 Gelbvieh or 3/4 Gelbvieh and 1/4 Angus. There is no difference in what the composition of the sire or dam is, so long as one of the parents are Angus, 1/2 Angus-Gelbvieh or Gelbvieh breeding and the other a different breeding/composition of what the other parent is.
