IWe have been using gelbveih for 30 some years and am very happy with them we are not straight bloods but balancer ,red Angus gel cross, I like them most for fertility.
MARC out of Clay center Ne said gelbveih is only second to Hereford in cow exposed to lbs of calf weaned. The only reason I don't run Herefords is ,at least in my Part of the world. Hereford s bring less at the barn significantly enough my gelbveih I feel will out dollar them in the end IMO.
As for disposition I've seen every breed of cattle under the sun that has a crazy in the herd somewhere, I get along fine with the disp. Of my cows.growth is great. When we added r/a we actually gave up weaning weight but we gained some carcass merit.
No breed solves it all you just have to decide in which direction you want to go and pick wisely
