Our Mini Zebus

[foot]

Hello all... We are new to this forum. We are from Nassua County FL which is Northeast Florida. Along with lots of other animals we have a small herd of Mini Zebus. We have a three year old Bull, two three year old heifers and two two year old heifers. We are hoping to meet other Mini Zebu enthusiasts on this site for sharing information and learning all we can. Any Mini Zebu folks out there? We will post pics as soon as we figure out the proper method to do so. We do have lots of questions. Has anyone bred their Mini Zebu?

You could do a search by clicking the search button at the top of the forum and type in zebu...and make some comments...it might bring the zebu herders out of the woodwork...

I'M HERE! The zebu world seems to be such a small one, right? I'm in central Florida & only know of 2 other zebu breeders in my immediate area & 2 others within a couple hours drive from me.
I have not bred mine yet, only because they aren't old enough--Lil Pearlie Mae is coming up on 5 months old. Lil Swiss Frank is around 9 months. I can't wait until they're old enough, though! And the 2 I have are such sweeties...I wish I'd have been able to get them sooner than I did.
You can check out mine on my facebook page (if you do fb). I also have a website. They are the 1st 2 links in my sig.

Oh & btw... from a fellow Floridian!

Hey Tigerlily Did check out your website. You babies are beautiful. We are hoping to find more Mini Zebu farmers so we can all learn from each other. We purchased each of our little ones at around 6 months of age. They are very sweet. All halter and lead trained and eat from your hands. My bull and two oldest are heading to three years of age. They have all pastured together. My first suggestion to you is make certain you have a VET that is willing to work with Mini's. We have just been shocked by our VET when we thought we needed him. He is a farm vet but he is unable or unwilling to help us out with these Mini Zebu. I think he is afraid of what he doesn't know. Our largest Heifer whom we believe is bred has been stressing us out. Behaving as though she is going into labor and then the next day she is just fine and we are back to wondering if she is even bred. Anyhow today I am on the hunt for a new vet. But we will keep you updated and post pics if ever she delivers a calf.
