sound, hearty, easy fleshing, maternal cattle with good feet and legs backed by good pedigrees. TELL US ABOUT YOUR GENETICS… The core of BBR’s genetics roots within the Maine- Anjou breed. We have been very fortunate to be part of some great influential bulls in this breed throughout the years, which has helped push our program forward. Some of these bulls include: X, X2, Rumor Mill, Data Bank, Memphis Mafia, All Me and End Game. On

the donor side, we have sought out females that we thought would match good with our bulls. Boss Beauty 84M, Sedgwicks Erica 5T, Eva, Joudy, Dominatrix and Zena have been the fundamental females in our donor pen. When purchasing cattle, whether a bull, show heifer or donor cow, we have never put the banner first in our purchasing decisions. We have always been interested in cattle with the pedigree and phenotype that can produce offspring to make

the next generation better.
