[QUOTE="Nite Hawk, post: 937140, member: 18682"] Also, maybe consider what breeds do well not only in 4-H but what breeds do well in your climate and area. Some hot climate type breeds of cattle tend to have resistance to some hot climate type diseases, which is something else to consider. I see lots of comments on this forum about S. Gertrudis, brahman etc which do well in warmer climates. The only cattle breeds around here that I know of that are Brahma influenced are Rodeo stock. No one else raises them. Go with what is well known in your area. If you brought a herd of brahma, S. Gertrudis etc influenced type cattle to a sale in our area and ran them through an auction, you probably wouldn't get very much for them. Cattlemen are not familiar with them, and I really don't think they would bring a very good price with the buyers. Your uncle could give you info as to what kind of cattle are in your area..
