They spend a large part of their time in the scendaros grazing. Last week I drove out in the pasture to check on them and they were literally in the brush grazing... not just in the scendaro... in the brush.
those were developed in the US, so was the name Brahman...there's different temperaments across the bos indicus breeds...I've been around several different.. The Gyr is dog gentle. Got a head as big as a wash tub, and a body like a longhorn :cowboy:Bright Raven":33i3ydw9 said:Brute 23":33i3ydw9 said:Its hard to explain how much hustle these cattle have compared to even the Brangus or F1 cattle.

I would not convert to Brahman where I am in Kentucky, furthermore, I love what I raise but it would be fun to have one to learn their nature. I have seen them on the savannas of Africa, they are interesting cattle. My concern would be their docility.
