[QUOTE="Anonymous, post: 4429"] I've been told that if you ues a Brahman bull on Hereford cows they will be more likly to be red baldys with a hint of striping to them and a touch of ear. If you use Brahman cows with a Hereford bull you are more likly to get true tigerstripes (more likly to be lighter) with more ear. Now i have never seen many red Brahman crosses in this part of Texas. Most of the Brahman around here are of the Grey variety. I would have to think that the latter of the two would make the lighter of the two. Hoped this helped some. > When producing F1s using Brahman > and Hereford, what are the > differences as far as using > brahman cows and a hereford bull > vs. using a brahman bull and > hereford cows? > Which cross, if not both, would > result in the lighter > tigerstripes. how about if you > wanted a mottled face, lighter > color, and lots of stripes? i know > the brahman diluter genes are > screwy so its probably just a > matter of trial and error with a > whole lotta variation. at least > thats what i'm assuming. > Does anyone have any experience > producing F1s with Red Brahmans? > would these also be tigerstriped > or solid red and white? they > should still have the diluter gene > and that is (isnt it?) what causes > the striping, correct?
