[QUOTE="B&M Farms, post: 919210, member: 15666"] A brahma cross cow on average will wean off a bigger calf on less feed, breed back timely at a 4, and do it for at least fifteen years with teeth still in her head. Most crossbreeds will outperform purebreeds in a commercial enviroment on average. Heterosis with any crossbreeds is a huge tool for commercial operations. I would say the biggest advantage I see with using brangus over angus cattle in Texas is longivity and heat tolerance on nothing but hay and grass. JMO [/QUOTE]
