[QUOTE="UG, post: 790421, member: 714"] We've got a few Braunviehs females on the place and never had any issues with calves not wanting to get up and nurse. But, the calves have all been 1/2 and 1/4 Braunvieh. It would interesting to see if the purebreds and fullbloods would be different. We really like the few we have and will likely add more to the operation in the future as we pick-up more grass. Like Lucky_P mentioned, you will likely get some brindles from crossing Braunvieh with Herefords. My guess is that they would get docked significantly at most sale barns. The few brindle marked cattle that I have seen out of Braunvieh bulls and red cows have been pretty ugly, especially in the winter months when the hair coat is shaggy. Our limited experience with Braunviehs is that the dispositions are actually very good. However, we have not run any Braunvieh or Braunvieh influenced bulls on our place. [/QUOTE]
