Can a longhorn cow be bred with a charolais bull?
Yes, but you have a very likely chance that the cow will have trouble giving birth. This is because Charolais are notorious for siring large calves, and since Longhorns are known for birthing small birth-weight calves, you could land yourself in a heap of trouble. You could end up loosing the cow for all it's worth. If you want a Charolais-Longhorn mix in your herd, you're better off breeding a Longhorn bull with a Charolais cow. This is because the cow will have much less trouble giving birth than if you breed vice versa.

How do you breed for yellow calves?

In Charolais bulls what do EPDs mean?
EPD's in Charolais bulls are numbers that tell of what genetics and characteristics that bull can pass on to his offspring. EPDs are based on a breed average when compared to other bulls of the same breed raised on the same feed in the same environment that are of the same age. Average is 0, whereas any number that is above average is a positive (+) number and any number that is below average is a negative (-) number. For instance, a Charolais bull (Bull A) that is considered to have good calving ease for his breeding and according to his birthweight, should have a negative value in the birthweight value and a positive value for calving ease. A Charolais bull (Bull B) that has good growth and high carcass characteristics should have a plus sign for weaning and yearling weights and carcass characteristics (marbling, rib-eye area, etc.). Bull A (one with good calving ease) is most likely to sire calves that are small at birthweight and easy for Charolais heifers to calve out. Bull B, on the other hand, will often be the opposite of Bull A because of the high weaning weights and excellent growth. Bull A is considered a maternal bull (siring calves best for raising for breeding), whereas Bull B is considered a terminal bull (sires calves intended for slaughter only). Note: EPDs are not to be compared with other breeds, since the average for each breed is different. See the related link below for more information on EPDs.
How can i make a charbray cow from a charolais cow?
That's real easy. Breed the Charolais cow to a Brahman bull and you'll get your F1 Charbray calf. Mind you, it's a 50-50 chance you'll get a heifer (which will "turn into" a cow once she has a calf) over a bull, so you may want to breed the dam until you get a heifer from her, if all she throws is bull calves. Either that or get more than one Charolais cow (preferably over 50) and breed them to the Brahman bull to get your Charbray cattle. Also, Charbrays are actually 5/8 Charolais and 3/8 Brahman, so you might have to breed the F1 offspring back to a Charolais bull to get a true Charbray cow...or bull.
