Lol, poor guy.Sone of the old posts, pics seem gone.
High point had fly bites on his tail, went in a pond to submerge it to get relief and sunburnt his balls.
We used to joke it was a low point in his career.
Should took more pics.
I think they were just the dual purpose Friesians from Europe but named that way as branding to distinguish from Holsteins in NA that lacked so much muscle and are hard doing, I think. Also, I think I remember reading the name Holstein in NA was administrative mistake on import so it was probably just a better informed name along with the branding.The traditional British Freisians would have started out as dual purpose and in the past the pure breed would have been a lot beefier.
Were these Beef Freisians a pure breed?
I've always been curious why did they start photographing that way?
If anyone has any other pictures to share or can comment on the beef friesian bulls and on the early days of Amerifax I would love to hear the stories.
This is what I had in mind as an example of a traditional British Friesian.
