[QUOTE="CentralFLAngus, post: 1599973, member: 38268"] Down here in Florida there are certainly some challenges that must be met. We are in Central Florida and kinda stuck between two different mind sets. The people south of us must have some Brahman, but the people north of us have a good disdain for brahman..... thus I would probably start my new herd with Brangus cows. When that first calf is only 3/16 brahman it certainly helps with the sellability of the calf to the north. I would likely breed back three different bull breeds, Angus, Brangus and Charolais. Charolais would be for the bulky terminal cross for steers, Angus for the Ultrablack replacements and Brangus to ensure that I could maintain a group of straight bred brangus for some time. Any that I didn't finish could easily be sold at the sale barn. [/QUOTE]
