F1 Brangus
About Our Herd
At 4W, we focus on bringing you the best quality, premier F1 replacement heifers & bred heifers in Texas.
This starts with premium, proven genetics. We partner with ranches in Kansas, Montana, and Wyoming to source top tier purebred Angus heifers and cows -- some with 150 years of consistent high quality Angus genetics. These Angus cows are bred to bulls coming from some of the top American Brahman Breeders Association ranches, such as JD Hudgins, Inc.
Health and nutrition are everything at 4W.
Our herd receives the finest care and attention. We regularly consult with a private cattle nutritionist to ensure we are maintaining top standard of health. Our ranch veterinarian also makes routine visits to check on the herd.
Our F1 Brangus spend 100% of their days grazing on native and coastal grasses with constant access to minerals and supplements.

Why F1
The F1 Brangus is a cross of purebred Angus cows and purebred Brahman bulls. The term "F1" stands for "first cross".
Well known for their environmental adaptability, Brahman cattle have superior genetics for heat tolerance, disease- and pest-resistance, longevity, and fertility.
The qualities of the resulting F1 calf are superior to those of both the parents, creating enhanced performance and added profitability to a herd.
F1 Brangus cows have greater fertility, calf survival, weaning rate, calf weight at weaning, and longevity.
Brahman F1 females bring in greater revenue per head compared to traditional females.
Brahman hybrid steers make rapid, efficient gains, produce heavier, higher yielding carcasses that are free of excess fat, and remain healthy while exceling in a feedlot.
