Beefy, is it the Brahman influence that makes for the extra sheath on the calf or is that related to something else? (Sorry for the dumb question, we just don't see any Brahma cattle here.)

Take care.

 

[Beefy]

Yes, its the Brahman. That calf is actually a heifer, out of a beefmaster bull and the cow is half brangus, half beefmaster. if i calculated correctly the calf should be about 15/32 brahman...?

Oops!

Sorry 'bout that. My mistake. See? Told you I didn't know squat about that breed and sure proved it with my post.

Thanks for the information. Always nice to learn new things!

Take care.

TR-

Sounds like the "Heinz 57" title is in order for her then....

She's a good cow, but she's old and didn't breed back on time, so she's a gonner after this year's calf. We really count ourselves lucky that she produced that heifer as a replacement as she is the spittin image of her mama.

Some of my heifers that are being exposed to the beefmaster. Thinking about maybe breeding them to a brangus next year.

same goes for these two:

I knew our neighbor's dalmation was up to no good! i could just tell by that guilty look on his face...

these beefmaster bull calves are out of a bull we no longer have. how would you rank these (with no regard to color)

little yellow bull deffinately #1, then the "herf" looking one, then the dalmation....

 

[G&L Cattle]

Beefy, you really have a beautiful herd. We have several beefmaster cows. Is the beefmaster breed kin to bramah? They have alot of simularities, seems to me.

thank you all,
G&L

 

[TUCO]

me not Beefy, but beefmaster = approximately 50% brahman, 25% hereford and 25% shorthorn

 

[G&L Cattle]

Thank you!

 

[Beefy]

True, and some express more hereford, brahman, shorthorn than others it seems.

Dear Jake,
I agree with you about the dun calf being the best. i really like the herf looking one alot too but he seems really posty to me at times, obviously more so than the other two. maybe i'm just being overly critical, i dont know. he had the best muscling early on though. The dalmation has the most length of the three.
