[QUOTE="BC, post: 789834, member: 67"] A half Brahman cow when bred to anything other than a dairy, Longhorn or Brahman derivative bull will produce an acceptable feeder calf. The half blood cow is versatile in that you can use an English bred bull (Angus, Hereford, shorthorn, etc) to improve carcass quality or a Continental bull (Charolais, Simmental, Gelbvieh, Limousin, etc) to improve red meat yield. The use of a Brangus, Santa Gertrudis or Beefmaster bull on a half=blood cow will let come close to reproducing the super replacement heifer, BUT the steer mates will not top the market (about $5 to $9 per cwt. back of the top at least here in East Texas) [/QUOTE]
