[QUOTE="txag, post: 7747, member: 8"] the maines would probably work about the same as if you put a black simmental bull on your tigers. depending on the bull, he'll probably add size & thickness & yes, blockiness. also, like simmies, the maine breed didn't originally have black animals.....the black was bred in (probably w/angus). they also have registrations w/percentage animals....not sure what those are but think they can be half-bloods & registered. whether or not he's homozygous black will determine the calf colors you get. as for hair, there are maine breeders here in texas & as mentioned on the beginners board, temps can get 100+ for days at a time & that's w/humidity, so i suppose they could also work in your environment. for what it's worth, i'd probably stay w/a good angus or brangus bull if you want black.
