Breeding PHILOSOPHY
|
|
Welcome to BW Dexters, where our commitment to excellence is reflected in our careful breeding practices. Here are the core principles that guide our efforts:
#1 Temperament
At BW Dexters, we prioritize not only physical perfection but also a calm and gentle temperament in our animals. Those exhibiting wild, mean, or unruly behavior have no place in our breeding program. We aim to produce animals that are easy to handle and can be halter-broken with ease, ensuring a harmonious experience for both the breeder and the animal.
#2 Structure
Recognizing the inherent structural challenges in the Dexter breed, we go the extra mile to address these issues, particularly focusing on legs, feet, and width. By doing so, we aim to enhance the longevity, fertility, and overall well-being of our animals. While we appreciate polled Dexters, our preference lies in structurally sound animals that contribute to the breed's overall robustness.
#3 Beef Qualities
Dexter beef is renowned for its delicious flavor, and at BW Dexters, we ensure you get plenty of it. Leveraging our experience with larger cattle breeds, we meticulously assess length, width, and rib depth to provide the high-quality meat you desire. Additionally, we scrutinize bone structure to gauge the animal's capacity for muscle development.
#4 Dairy Qualities
In our pursuit of excellence, we address udder-related concerns by focusing on proper teat placement and attachment on the fore and upper udder. This not only improves milk production but also extends the cow's ability to lactate. While we pay attention to the A2/A2 gene, we believe in the importance of other qualities and are actively working to introduce this gene to all our cattle. Genetic test results for the A2/A2 gene will be provided on a per-animal basis.
Disclaimer: It's essential to note that we do not claim the A2/A2 gene offers healing properties, improved health, or any specific medical benefits. Our commitment lies in producing well-rounded and genetically diverse animals to contribute positively to the Dexter breed.
At BW Dexters, excellence is not just a goal; it's a standard we consistently strive to achieve. Join us in our commitment to quality and experience the difference in our carefully bred Dexter cattle.
