New to me. Black Brahma bull

[Kingfisher678]

I just never have seen one. Here they are usually white, silver or smoked grey. I saw an almost black w some smoke on his belly Brahma bull laying up near a gate. Funny thing was there was a group of about 8 pure black calves laying up with him. I should of taken a picture. I guess it was his turn to babysit because I didn’t see any momma cows. I suppose calves were an Angus / Brahma cross? Pure black best I could tell

Never seen one flat black.

I have seen black bos indicus cattle. The mini zebu breeds have a lot of black ones. But I have seem people post pics of black brahma and black gir.

There are a few really dark pigmented purebred ones, but most of the black or black and white ones come across will have Sardo in them like this one.

Holy cow, that bull has some ear. And I googled "sardo cattle" and they have a lot of ear too.

A good example of black selling no matter what the animal is.

I don't know, he'd look good as a pasture ornament to then break out and breed somebody else's cows.

That bull would be better classified as a Zebu.…https://brcutrer.com/what-color-are-brahmans/

Hopefully he’d hang his hardware on a barb..before he reached his destination..

lmao, with any luck he stumbles into a pasture of mini herefords and the ensuing problem gives us a new member.

They are all Zebu: Gyr, Guzerat, Indu-Brasil, Nelore, Sardo and American Brahman, which is a composite of all of those previous 5, plus some. The poster said he raises Sardo Negro (black Sardis) and Gyr. Actually the bull is typical for his breed, and would probably place high in a breed show.

I saw a small herd of "Zebu" for sale near here that I'd have offered to buy (to flip) if they'd have answered the phone. I posted about it, they were lighter and a little different from what I'm used to seeing in indocine cattle.

Yep already know that thanks..and he’s definitely typical for his breed ..no guts no butt. looks like a hand slung chittlin

I was unaware that registered black brahmas were a thing until recently as we. Ranch near El Reno, where i bought my F1s, has them. Looks like your normal grey/red brahma, but black.

 

[Chapin81]

Brc has a few with heavy pigmentation except the rib area. V8 has this one as well which breeds red and gray. I’m not a fan of the dark pigment on Brahmans.

 

[alacowman1]

Black wouldn’t be on my list of necessities in a “Good” Brahma bull..just soon have a good American grey or red
