BREED INFORMATION British Charolais are a terminal breef sire and should be fast growing cattle of good conformation CHAROLAIS BULLS *
The Charolais bull should be a well-muscled animal on good strong feet and legs to carry the heavy weights associated with the breed.
*
The head should have a wide muzzle with a strong jaw placement.
*
The eyes should be set reasonably wide apart
*
The ears should be big.
*
The head should be sat proud on a strong muscular neck.
*
The back should be long and level without dips, particularly behind the shoulder.
*
There should be a good heart room and a minimum amount of brisket in the forequarter.
*
The tail setting should be set comfortable into good wide plates over the hindquarters of the bull.
*
The hindquarters should also have a good depth of second thigh and should be well rounded.
*
There can be two extreme types of Charolais, which should be discouraged. One type would be the tall, flat-sided bull which has a slack back and a poor hindquarter. This type has no place in modern day beef production and indeed never has. The second would be double-muscled heavy shouldered bull, which invariably has associated fertility and calving problems.
CHAROLAIS FEMALES *
The females should have a feminine appearance and should not be heavily muscled and masculine in appearance as this sort tend to be either poor or irregular breeders.
*
The head should be wide muzzled with a longer rather than boxy type appearance.
*
Like the bulls, the head should be alert.
*
The back should be long and level with a good spring of rib and a minimum of brisket in the forequarter.
*
The tail setting should not be dropped and preferably should be slightly raised as this is alleged to be associated with easier calving.
*
The legs should be of strong flat bone on good sound feet.
*
In the case of cows, the udder should be of a good capacity with four well-formed teats for suckled calf production.
*
The colour of Charolais cattle is generally creamy white through to a light tan colour.
*
Broken coloured cattle are not to be encouraged although this would be of a secondary importance to skeletal structure and good conformation.
