[QUOTE="Brute 23, post: 1451311, member: 6291"] Are your F1s having trouble in your area? I know certain parts of LA are pure hell on cattle... its pure blood Brahman only. If you need the extra Brahman influence then go for it. If not, then I would stick with the F1s. Your F1s with a real-deal Angus bull will mash the scales. You may also watch the timing of the breeding. Selling Brahman bulls calves in the fall is probably not a good idea. Some one else may have a better explanation on that. Dont' be scared off by people on here. Go watch some sales. See how much the bulls get docked... see how much the females cost... run the the numbers and see what you come up with. "What the bulls bring" is only one part of the equation. There are a lot of factors people who have never done it don't take in to account. If they wean at a higher weight but don't bring as much per pound, you may find out your didn't lose at all. Go find out for yourself and report back. :tiphat: [/QUOTE]
