Our Gelbvieh cows are by far the best mums we have ever had. When ringing the steers and with all the mums separated out into the yards paddock most of the herefords and some of the MG will be off scoffing their face on the fresh growth. Not the gelbvieh's and MG/Gelb X's. They'll be there leaning right over the yards rails staring us in the eye, and every time they catch our eye they'll bellow, covering us in spit. Happy as clams the minute you give them back their calf. In the paddock they are generally glued at the hip for the 7 months from birth till they go to the sales.
