The
Red Brangus breed was not based on theory that two
breeds ought to produce a superior third. Instead, the
mating of Brahman and Angus in a commercial setting
proved itself superior to straight-bred British cattle.
While these commercial matings yielded both red and
black progeny, it was the red calves that proved
themselves superior in terms of growth, fertility and
hardiness. Red Brangus cattle combine the hardiness,
disease resistance and unmatched maternal instincts of
the Brahman breed with the superior carcass quality,
fertility, maternal and milking ability of the Angus.
Red Brangus breeders have been diligent in
maintaining these characteristics and have concentrated
on producing cattle that will meet the needs of the
commercial industry as well as the consumer. more>
