Chapin, is he a registered Brahma? Or is he a Indu-Brasille? Are there Brahma seed stock producers in that country, or do you import them?
Also are you seeing any Chianina in your area? For a several years now, I have been sending Chianina bulls to my Mexican broker in Chihuahua. Mexico, who is selling them in Guatemala, Venezuela and Brazil. Last month I sent him 3 Chiania x Charbray bulls too, and he said he could use some more like that. What is your opinion of using Chianina and/or Char bulls in your area? I can see the Chi's working out great. They are every bit as heat, parasite and insect tolerant as Brahma, and they are known travelers, but I would think not so much pb Chars. Do you think a Char bull would thrive and be able to cover ground enough to be of use in your country?
