Putting together bloodlines from all over the World to prefect this great breed. We have been breeding the Romagnola since 1972. We brought the first Romagnolas to the United States, with a bull calf called “Rob Roy”. This Great Breed works well in South Texas, as well in North Country. We have crossed with several other breeds and the Romagnola influence comes across at weaning time and goes all the way to the bank. Below is one of our main Full Blood Romagnola Bulls. This bull is used mainly for semen collection. Very outstanding bull for the Romagnola breed. ROMANGUS: We have created this new breed call RomAngus. Working with Texas-A&M and many Veterinarian and Reproduction Specialists, We have created the RomAngus Breed. It is a cross between Romagnola & Angus. We DNA test all calves to check for Homozygous black and Poll genes. This cross is the best for top quality meat. The meat is lean and tender and will cut Choice. Calves are born small, and grow very fast. WOLF MOUNTAIN RANCH DAWN’S PROMISE FARMS LLC P.O.

The Romagnolas here in the Mid West have done very well. The heat and the cold doesn’t have any effect on them. Over the years we have crossed with several different breeds. The Romagnola is known to have low birth weight & fast weight gain. This has been proven for years off the cow, and to the feed lots. The Romagnola in commercial herds has produced more solid color calves. While SOME breeds are in the ponds cooling off, the Romagnola Bull is out working for you. We have sold Romagnolas all over the United States and in Mexico. We want to invite you to come see the Romagnolas at our place. 6 VISTORS ALWAYS WELCOME 7 “Average weaning weight was 528.6 lbs” A group of 30 RomAngus calves was born in March 2012 at Cherokee Ranch and was weaned, weighed, and photographed in August at 5 months. All were uniform bulls and heifers. Average weaning weight was 528.6 lbs. With an average birth weight of 64 lbs, this group produced an average daily gain of 3.1 pounds per day! The hybrid growth works well with a Romagnola bull on a black cow. You can expect these Romagnola X Angus calves, both steers and heifers, to produce NO TRIM carcasses that GRADE CHOICE and yield 65+%. This translates to MONEY IN THE BANK and the GUESS WORK OUT! I f feeder calves are your goal, Romagnola bulls can help you achieve a predictable, uniform herd. Romagnola bulls are fertile, mobile, and aggressive breeders. Like Brahman influenced cattle, Romagnola skin can thermo-regulate, or “sweat”, which helps them to thrive in hot, tropical, or arid (dry) conditions. Romagnola also cross great with Brahman to improve marbling, remove a little ear, and usually doesn’t change the offspring’s body color. The Romagnola bull is being recognized as an excellent maternal sire, which can be a herd changer with his offspring in most cattle, including buffalo, to add more rump, small-grained muscle fiber, and fine flakes of marbling. 8 W e are confident that our Romagnola bulls will make a significant impact in helping commercial cattlemen increase their cattle weights without sacrificing calving ease. R “Romagnola are very gentle” omagnola calves are long and tubular, which are easier to calve than short, compact calves. Most Romagnola and Romagnola crosses produce uniform calves with birth weights in the 65-78 pound range. Romagnola calves are hardy, vigorous, and grow off quickly. R “Unmatched in both Heat and Cold Resistance” EXPECT: • Gentle • Fertility & Calving Ease • Growth & Hardiness • Excellent Flavor & Tenderness • Higher Average Daily Gain • High Select and Choice Carcasses • MORE PROFITABILITY! omagnola are very gentle cattle. This trait alone makes them your ideal choice— Research has proven that gentle cattle do better on feed and hang a better carcass. T hey are unmatched in both heat and cold tolerance. Romagnola range from Canada down through South America. Because of this, they can perform well in almost any environment. R omagnola crosses make excellent “feeders” in the feedlot and often finish earlier than other composites. In one study of two equal groups of approx. 100 females in each group, Romagnola bulls were crossed with one group and Angus bulls were crossed with the other. The Romagnola crossed group finished 30 days earlier in the feedlot than the Angus crossed group! 9 Cattle for Sale: Bulls, Heifers, and Bred Cows. Genetics from Ande, Houdini, Ivanhoe, and Unno, some of the breed’s leading pedigrees! 10 11 Romagnola bulls can produce calves that are lively, grow quickly, and produce tremendous muscular carcasses that can yield in the 65% range or better, even when bred to inferior cows. The meat is tender, moist, lean, and full of flavor. A Romagnola Cross Out of an Angus Cow 12 If you combine Romagnola genetics with breeds that have marbling, then you will get crosses that will grade and yield. If you cross Romagnola with cattle that are lean, like the European lean breeds, then you will get high yielding carcasses with a hybrid vigor boost in the first cross. 13 THOUSANDS OF DOLLARS ARE LOST EACH YEAR DUE TO EXCESS FAT!!! Lean, High Yielding Romagnola Cross Carcass In the first picture above, over one inch of backfat had to be trimmed from these steaks. This is typical of Choice carcasses. Steaks are either trimmed by the packer, or by the point of sale such as restaurants and supermarkets. This causes increased time and labor costs, and produces tremendous waste. Almost 1/4 to 1/3 is lost from the product, and meat is sold by weight. The second photo demonstrates the amount of fat accumulated in the “waste tray”. If this was a “Prime cut”, there would be even more backfat! High yielding carcasses bring more dollars, and heavier muscled, leaner carcasses pay premiums. It is a fact that our society is demanding leaner, healthier beef, and the supply is short. Perhaps now you can see why there is such a push to find lean, muscular bulls that can produce choice and correct the problem of backfat. Look no further than Romagnola! • ROMAGNOLA BULLS CAN SOLVE THIS PROBLEM AND GIVE YOU CALVES THAT WILL YIELD HIGHER AND CUT AT LEAST 65% CARCASS. • ROMAGNOLA CROSS CALVES ARE EFFICIENT IN THE FEEDLOT AND OFTEN FINISH SOONER THAN OTHER CALVES NOT INFLUENCED BY ROMAGNOLA. • FEEDLOT DATA SHOW THAT ROMAGNOLA CROSS CALVES ARE HARDY AND SELDOM NEED ANTIBIOTICS OR OTHER MEDICATIONS. 14 The demand for less back fat on our beef is not just a passing fancy. It's a fundamental consumer attitude shaping the beef industry's future. We must respond. Romagnola cross beef is exactly what the public is seeking: lean, low in cholesterol and delicious! Romagnola cross has extremely high meat to bone yield of about 65+% on average. .27 in. Back Fat, 14.7 sq. in. REA: A NO TRIM, HIGH CHOICE CARCASS A Cut at Twelfth Rib: Choice Cut!

Trim it off genetically with Romagnola, and infuse a finegrain beef fiber with adequate marbling in the muscle that cuts choice. A RomAngus Calf will add 3+ pounds of choice-cut beef per day and good leg bones to its carriage.
