    Black & White Speckle Brahman

    The red speckle gyr heifer I just got has little finger size milkers on her.I was told the gyr are used for milk cows in some other countries,why some have bigger udders.Yeah I will finally agree the wild crazy nut cases need to go to the sales barn,no place for them in my herd.As you said never...

    Black & White Speckle Brahman

    Favorite Cross

    I like those crosses too.Cross the Red Brahman mom ma cow with any of the red bulls(so many) will sure make some beautiful replacement heifers or a show calf.For me the brahma cow works best vs the brahma bull doing a cross.

    Crossbreeding - AGAIN!

    On those 3 or 4 different breeds.Yeah it would be nice to have a few reg. mom ma cows from each one of those.But I would only AI with a +bull of the same breed the cow is.I would not mix them,cross crossbreed X crossbreed.I would be getting too far off base and square 1.Those breeds are the same...

    Santa Gertrudis?Beefmaster?Red Brangus?Red Brahmas?

    Aye Big Bull and Burno I know you guys say stay away from the heifers.Just wondering why anyone would sell a really good registered cow like a 3x1?This one lady that sells brahmas told me they will not and don't sell their best cows.So I guess that is true with other breeders too.No one will...

    Santa Gertrudis?Beefmaster?Red Brangus?Red Brahmas?

    Santa Gertrudis?Beefmaster?Red Brangus?Red Brahmas?

    Well I would keep the first few heifers,then begin to sell them.I have never bought or sold at a replacement sale.Only sold at the sales barn or off the farm,same with buying.To sell at one of the yearly sales all those associations have,gotta be a member?Then registered vs commerical,as far as...
