[QUOTE="novatech, post: 628725, member: 5494"] I am with you on this alacattleman. When brangus are cooling of in the pond the Brahmans are just getting up to graze. On top of that you will rarely find straight bred Brahman with a calving problem. As far as temperament, it is equal to how they are handled. They will be as gentle as your skill will allow or as mean as your lack of skill will show. They are known for efficiency. marksmu; I would like to see some of the research you have done where it shows that Brangus are as heat tolarant or mesquito resistant as straight bred Brahman. As far as seeing the Brahman under a shade tree. Yep probably chewing their cud waiting for the temp to go up a little. ;-) I don't know who you have been talking to but I would stay clear of the advice they are giving you. They are flat out wrong. I've been messing with Brahman since the early 50's and never had a problem with hoof rot. Brahmans have run on the salt grass marsh lands along the coast ever since they were imported. By the way I do not have anything against Brangus. If you are new to cattle I would not recomend Brahmans or Brahman cross. They know when you don't know. Stay with straight bred Bos Tarus until you learn the ropes. [/QUOTE]
