Brahma cattle

What is a Gir cow?

It's an Indian breed of cow, one of the breeds that was used to create the American Brahman breed. Gir is also spelled Gyr.

Here is an update of Babe's bull Brangus calf (Bart). He's just turned 6 months old and he's a whopper. We left him a bull for obvious reasons, man this calf looks like a bull already and he's still a baby! Mother is my grey American Brahman (her first calf) and dad is Angus

Hey... he sprung a leak !!! Where do you shut off the water main?

He's turning in to a nice looking fella isn't he. I ve seen one other brahma angus cross and you guy puts her to shame....she was pretty dopey looking standing out with the other angus.

Got a pic with the rear view? Looks like good muscling on the rear but hard to tell at that angle. Pretty good line across the top.
He could use a little more length, but he may well grow that before time for him to go to work.
His left front leg looks odd in the middle pic--his hooves ok?. (again, it may just be the angle of the picture or how he happened to be standing at the time.)
