You can see the oily secretions that keep the bugs off.

All I see is "La". . Cool pic JW.

Lol, those dirt streaks are the skin secretions. She would be solid white if she had a bath.

John, are those sebaceous secretions?

 

[gizmom]

Very nice cow and picture. Have you been getting a lot of rain? Sure looks green and wet.

Gizmom

I would have to look up the technical terms, Ron. Brahman are oily to the touch, like touching an engine with blown valve cover gaskets.

Gizmom we are getting daily rains. This is the first year my stock pond didn't go dry and we have a family of gators that moved in. You cannot find a raccoon around here this year.

 

[Caustic Burno]

Love the brimmer girls.
Need some coons to feed the gators?
We can work out a deal how many coons for a brimmer?

We went for a drive up north last week and saw a big old brahman with a herd of black cows. He sure was a cool looking dude.

I really like your calves. Not trying to tend to your business but I thought Id mention this. Don't know if it's possible but if you're able to catch them when they're born or shortly after and put some Triodyne on those navels they won't swell like the one in the first pic. Usually doesn't cause a problem but I've noticed it's worse in my Brahman cross calves. Maybe someone smarter than me can tell you why, or you may already know. Either way, nice calves. Wish I could find more Brahman and BrahmanX heifers around here without having to pay 3 prices for the few available.

Caustic this might be the summer to start sniffing around for heifers. I've seen some nice ones for decent prices.

Nice calves, thanks for sharing WORanch

I am with you liking the prices I have been seeing and I have enough hay set aside for about 15 more.
Gambling they will continue to decline into Sept. Now just have to run across the right ones getting unloaded at the barn

 

[JWBrahman]

There is going to be a flood of heifers hitting the market in September and October. Word came down to get everything to 800lbs this year so people are holding em back on the good pasture.
