large or small cattle

Help Support CattleToday:

I agree with you and I'm a Nelore breeder but he really should consider Romagnola or any of the Italians to avoid ear and hump.

Consider what Dun wrote to you --- he usually offers good advise and, as I recall, definitely has experience raising cattle in the western desert country. That said, if you still want to avoid the Brahman "ear" issue, may I suggest that you do a little investigating on the Senepol breed, for heat tolerance, lack of ear, relatively high grading carcass. Don't know how they stack up against Brahman for "rustling" and traveling long distances to eat & drink.

Another Zebu breed that comes to mind is Nelore --- picture a light grey Brahman but without the big ears (still has the hump)
