The breed is noted for its good temperament, early maturity and easy-care attributes, which makes them a popular breed of cattle for smaller farms. Despite their stature they have excellent muscling and perform well in steer and carcass competitions. As a breed, they are quiet and easy to handle and have long lifespans. They have a fast growth rate and are thrifty, more cattle being able to graze on a particular acreage than traditional European breeds.
