"Babe" with the 2009 Braunvieh calves.
|
BAA Registered Braunvieh The name "Braunvieh" is sometimes confused as a crossbreed. They are not. They are actually an old European breed and basically are the beefier version of the Brown Swiss. Braunvieh, literally translated means "brown cow". The original Braunviehs imported from Switzerland were often crossed with Angus and today they are a good cross with Angus and Simmental for commercial cattle. Monty purchased our first registered Braunvieh Cows in 2006 as part of a high school FFA project.

PFI MISS POL PEL OF PFI S262
|
PFI MISS POL PEL OF PFI S262 aka "Big Girl" was purchased as a yearling heifer. The calf at her side is her 09 heifer by PFI ZOOM 417. Big Girl had twin bulls in 2008. She calved with no assistance, but the calves were dead when we found them. She was up licking them, mooing to them and trying to get them up. They were both fully formed 60 lb calves. She is an excellent mother. Sold Note: The steer calf to her right is an example of a YEARLING Beef Builder Steer. He was already bigger than most of our cows and the two year old Angus bull that was running with them last summer!! |
