This is a warning to anyone who has ever or who will ever consider owning cattle of the Limousin breed. I have recently sold the very last Limousin cow and bull I will ever own. They will never work for any commercial cattleman, EVER! The cows are coarse unfeminine, hard keeping, bad tempered and poor milking. The bulls are bad structured, bad tempered (CRAZY as HELL) and hard keeping as well. The resulting calves are slow growing unless you can creep feed the hell out of them and they will always be smaller than a calf of a different breed which is the same age because a Limousin cow will not milk. No matter what you cross them with the bad traits are passed on as well. This is just a warning to anyone who does not want to waste time money and hard work on a breed of cattle that can't survive. I got screwed and I wanted to help others to not have the same fate. The Limousin slogan " Get more muscle for less" is a buch of crap, you will pay for that muscle, and pay dearly at that. I have switched back to Simmental and Charolais bulls on my crossbred cows and I have started using Braunvieh and Gelbvieh bulls with much more success. Heed the Warning.
