by the look of that slabby butt he has to have brahman in him somewhere,also his ears are a little large for a limo , so if he was mine i would tell everybody he was brahmousin

What does slabby butt mean?

 

[Jake]

I'd say limi X gelbvieh... head a little to square to have Red Angus anywhere too direct in the lineage.

 

[tracy]

sorry i am from aus---but we call things that when there isnt much shape his butt is pretty square compared to if he was pure limo it would be more rounded.

 

[Caustic Burno]

Big Red and looks of French ancestry

 

[Bull Honky]

Looks like a big pile of Gelbvieh in the mix there to me.

 

[Angus]

Can't see Limo here

X Brah

 

[sidney411]

Well, I would have to agree with the limo part for sure. The eye patches and nose path give that away. He looks a lot like a strait limo bull he had on our herf's a while back.

[Diamond B Ranch]

No tarentaise around here to my knowledge.

Thanks for all the replies!!

Have some of you folks forgotten what red limos look like? I immediately thought of limousine-gelbveigh cross. My uncle used to have a red limo in the 80's, and this one looks a lot like him except the hindquarters were more rounded, hence I think he has some gelb in him. I remember the first gelb ad I ever saw, and I thought they looked a lot like limos.

Guessing Limousin or South Devon, some Red Angus and some Brahman influence 2 or 3 generations back.

Obviously, a purebred South Devon, no question about it.
