[QUOTE="Kent, post: 218414, member: 2134"] The only thing I would add to Cypress' post is that the Brangus and Braford cattle that are 5/8-3/8 have also been selected for disposition. That's why I recommended them over the F1's (50-50). Also, Braford F1's are often called "tigerstripes" because of their color pattern, in case you didn't know. Tigers and F1 Brangus cattle can be harder to handle, and it's not worth getting hurt for a few cattle. Beefmasters have been selected for disposition as one of the "Six Essential Traits" for over 50 years. They are generally good cattle that are fertile, raise heavy calves, and make good "rubbing cattle" if you want to be able to pat them on the back. Edit: When I said that about getting hurt, I didn't mean Brangus and Braford F1's are bad cattle, but they are not really good for novices. [/QUOTE]
