[piedmontese]

I just wouldn't post my full name and numbers on here for all to see, you just never know what kind of hooligans you may attract .

He didn't post them on here, HD. He posted them on Cattle Range. Kinda hard to sell something if you don't give potential buyers a way to contact you.

from what ive seen of them, and from what ive heard about their temperment... not even a cross i would concider crossing on a brahman influence.... they look like they would cross better on british breeds

A limousine on brangus will mostly give black calves.

If you use a Homozygous Black Limousin bull you will get ALL black calves out of the Brangus cows.

Limo will give you a 3 way cross ,more hybrid vigor . You can also use a homo blk GV bull on the cows for a well muscled 3 way cross, that will also give you high ween weights .

 

[Red Bull Breeder]

Jamie will get mostly black calves with a red bull. Don't know how easy it would be to find a Homozygous black bull of any breed other than Black Angus in Mexico.

 

[hillsdown]

Canada just shipped some GV breeding stock to Mexico, Pb reg bred heifers and yearling bulls . But you are right RR , you need to use what is available to you .

 

[Red Bull Breeder]

Been Red Limousin bulls going to Mexico by the trailer load out of Texas and OK ever fall for quite a few years now. Got to be some down there some where.

 

[jaimefloresh]

well if it were me out of the hereford and the lim i would use the lim if it was for terminal. but i dont have much experiance with either so dont put alot of stock in that. also you ask why not saler for terminal. well i dont know how your market works down there but round here the salers i have when bred back to a saler bull they could outweigh an angus calf and bring plenty less because of the way they were put together but when bred to an angus bull they would outsell the angus calf every time. they make one heck of a momma cow and there are calm bred salers out there just make sure you watch thier docility and if you cant get a calm bred one then i wouldnt use them cause the wild ones will sure get you if givin the chance and i have seen them outjump any deer around when put in corrals. but the main reason i wouldnt use them for terminal purpose is there is alot better choice than that. terminal in my mind is for selling the calves not retaining any and if your looking for lbs than there are choices that can give you alot more lbs than the saler ever will and the lim bull would be one that will.

If I had brangus cows and needed a terminal sire, and had to pick from those breeds; I would take the limousine. If I needed a maternal sire to cross on brangus; I would use a hereford bull.



The salers conformation is not terminal enough. And the salers disposition will likely not combine well with the brangus disposition. :2cents:
