They're Brahmans:

Great cattle. Very attractive IMO. All the ones I've known have had great attitudes too. I used to ride a Brahman bull that was broke. I rode him all over the farm bareback with a halter. :rofl
They also come in LOTS of pretty colors.
Re: My new foal Dusty
I despise brahmas. We had a bull on our cows at one point and he was rank. He'd charge the fence if anyone got near it. He was horrid. We got one batch of heiffers out of him which we retained and sold him off quick. Of those heiffers, 90% were horrid!
Our show cows last year were brangus, and they were DISASTERS. I mean absolutely unmanagable at points.
However, glenn maintains that they are the best cows ever.
Re: My new foal Dusty
I've seen brahmas go both ways. I've met some that were super gentle (pets that would try follow you in the house) and then some of the meanest bucking bulls seem to be brahmas or brahma cross. :? Maybe its just the individual lines, we had a small herd of angus and black baldies and they varied everything from eat out of your hand to absolutely bonkers.

[quote="NZ Appaloosas"]Hubby doesn't like Brahmas either...it was a Brahma bull that turned him into the centre portion of a bull-n-metal chute sandwich, breaking his back. Apparently the cracking sound was so loud it ricocheted around the whole arena.

Yea Brahmas can be mean, esp. those that aren't handled a lot and socialized as calves. It was a Brahma cross that ended Matts rodeo career (if you can really consider rodeo a career).
Re: My new foal Dusty
Hes too pretty to be a boy! lol
I have been offered some seriously good money for him, im tempted to sell, but I dont really want to. :( The 2 ppl would give him great homes and he would be campaigned, one is a barrel racer and one is a reiner. Dont know what to do :(
