Minature Brahman Cattle Now Living With Us

Boy, has our farm grown! Friends asked us to pasture a small herd of minature Brahman cattle for them. They are so gentle and tiny and supposedly tough. Check out their size next to Mark. A typical full size bull weighs 2000 lbs. The miniature Brahman bull weighs between 200 and 400 lbs! They grow to be a maximum of 42 inches tall, some smaller.




This picture allows you to see the physique of the bull - pretty impressive horns and hump on his back.












The calves are both males. If you look closely you can see the little humps on their backs already.

The origin of these cattle is India and this is a unique species not 'bred down' from a larger breed. They are called Zebu in India; Brahman is the American name.

Pretty cool, huh?

Unquestionably believe that which you stated. Your favorite
reason seemed to be on the web the simplest thing to be aware
of. I say to you, I definitely get irked while people consider worries
that they just do not know about. You managed to hit the nail upon the top and also
defined out the whole thing without having side-effects , people could take a signal.
Will likely be back to get more. Thanks
