[QUOTE="Warren Allison, post: 1663974, member: 40587"] Thanks for sending that, [USER=694]@Caustic Burno[/USER] . I read it through a couple of times. I wonder if this Brahma phenomenon ever presents in F! crosses? Would an F1 Braford bull bred to an Angus cow, result in bigger calves ,especially bull calves, than an Angus bull bred to F1 Braford cows? I don't recall ever seeing this, but, I have never thought about it and looked for it, either. Then too, you wouldn' t see a lot of people using an F1 bull, either. Or how about in crosses with one of the 3/8ths Brahma breeds...Braford, Brangus, Santa Gertrudis or Beefmaster? I wonder if you bred, say, Charolais, Angus or Hereford cows to one of these bulls, would the calves be bigger than breeding a Charolais, Angus or Hereford bull to cows of any of these 4 breeds? I have seen these crosses, both ways, a lot in my life. But, never in sufficient quantities, or over a long enough time. And again, I never paid any attention to it, or even thought to look for it.
