How do you spell charlea is that a type of bull?
It's spelled Charolais. It's a breed, not a type of bull. The Charolais (pronounced as SHAR-lay) is a beef breed that originated in France, and was historically used for draft purposes. Most of the cattle of this breed are white, but there are also black and red-factor cattle. The black Charolais look almost like really beefy black Jersey cattle, only difference is that there is no tan saddle, plus they are much larger and muscular than the Jersey breed. Red-factor Charolais are almost an orange colour to a light yellow-tan. Charolais are very poor milkers, raise and give birth to very large calves, and overall have an averageweight of over 1600 to 2000 lbs. They are a breed that needs a bit more pampering than others because of their genetics and ancestral roots.

The Simmental breed has an "open breeding" ruling in that any animal can be registered as Simmental (not Simmental-cross or SimGenetic) as long as there is 7/8 Simmental breeding in said animal, according to the Standards of Registration by the American Simmental Association. Simmental cattle can be near any colour besides the popular brown and red associated with the more heritage Simmental cattle, including black.
