They do, it's just not a common cross like Hereford to Angus or Simmental to Angus. Don't complain about it, just get a TL over that brimmer cow of yours and see what kind of calf you get and what it will grow up to be.

Is a Bradford bull a cross breed or a Bos Tarus?

The Braford breed is a result of crossbreeding Brahman with Hereford. The breed has been created in such a way that resulting offspring of this F1 cross no longer have hybrid vigour (or less so than the initial Brahman-Hereford cross), and thus create cattle that can be registered as purebred Braford cattle.


Can a jersey cow can handle a brahman bull mounting her?

This would depend upon the relative size of the Jersey and the Brahman in question. Jersey cows are among the smaller breeds of cattle, and Brahman bulls tend to be among the larger breeds of cattle. It may be a better idea to collect the Brahman bull and artificially inseminate the Jersey cow if you really want this cross to happen. To add to what was mentioned above in the first sentence, a Jersey cow may be able to handle a Brahman bull if the bull was a yearling, not a fully mature 2200+ lb bull. To compare, Jersey bulls mature at around 1600 to 1800 lbs, considerably smaller than the average mature weight of a Brahmer. Thus, as mentioned above, if you want a Jersey-Brahman cross bad enough, it's possibly best to AI the Jersey cow with Brahman semen. Note, though, the bull from where the semen was collected better have high calving ease/low birth weight EPDs (Expected Progeny Differences) so that the Jersey will not have a difficult birth (dystocia) if she might if you paid little attention to such numbers.


Is a braford bull bos indicus?

Close! Brafords are really a cross between a Bos Taurus(Hereford) and Bos indicus (Brahman). So, scientifically speaking, the species name of a Braford could be either Bos indicus Taurus or Bos Taurus indicus.

What can cows be cross bred too?

That all depends on what breed they are and where you are located, as well as what kind of calves your local markets are demanding. If they are Angus cows they can be cross bred to a Brahman, Hereford or Shorthorn bull. If they are Charolais cows, they can be bred to a Red Angus, Angus, Hereford, Simmental, Shorthorn, Limousin, Brahman or Santa Gertrudis bull.


What type of cattle is a Bradford?

There is no such breed of cattle called the Bradford. However, there is a breed called the Braford, and it is a composite beef breed of Brahman (Bos indicus) and Hereford (Bos taurus) in a 3/8 to 5/8 cross, respectively. The American Brafords (known simply as Brafords) are a close relation to the Australian Brafords and are comprised of the composite mix as mentioned previously, however with the Australian Brafords they are comprised approximately 1/2 Brahman and 1/2 Hereford. Both Australian and American Brafords are stabilized breeds, not hybrids like when you cross a Brahman over a Hereford and get a Brahman-Hereford F1 cross calf.Please see the related links below for more.
