Sorry old feller. :lol2: :lol2:Red Bull Breeder":40w9i9qz said:Hey TB put you reading glasses on,I said them great black baldies. And them great black baldies is why i don't got no use for them now.
That has always been my experience with them. There was one that I thought had some promise but you could stand there and watch her sort feed like no other cow I've ever seen and she was still only average for the herd(which wasn't much) but they were sure proud of her...TexasBred":txqa7w55 said:Pretty darn true except I think they can out eat a holstein.ANAZAZI":txqa7w55 said:Old saying about Brown Swiss: "milks like a Jersey - eats like a Holstein".

Finishing out my second crop of braunvieh and bruanvieh cross calves now. The most impressive calves so far are the braunvieh X charolais. I several heifers of this cross that should calf in the fall. They are hereford bred and hoping for some yellow white face calves. Purchased my first Black angus bull and plan to run him on the braunvieh, and cross bred heifers.
We had no additude or calving issues with our Braunvieh bull. But, every bred can have a bad one now and then. I love the bruanvieh bred, but I kinda like the cross bred better.
