Stey Braes F-1 Hybrid Breeding Program

We regard our F-1 female as a maternal machine with few peers due to her inbred environment adaptivity, increased milk production, higher fertility and heat and disease resistance, courtesy of her Brahman parent. Our F-1 female's calf will wean with more weight per day of age than her straight-bred contemporaries. 

Our F-1 will live longer, producing more pounds of calf over her lifetime than others.  In the feedlot, our Brahman hybrid steers make rapid, efficient gains and produce high cutting carcasses that are free of excess fat, which today's packer and health-conscious consumers demand. The Brahman F-1 female makes an excellent commercial beef cow.
