Thats very likely-i saved back a baldy heifer this year out of a purebred hereford cow and a purebred angus bull-bred her to purebred angus bull. Will be very interested to see if she throws a baldy or a solid calf in the spring.
For the first time with this Spring's calf crop I had black baldies bred to an Angus bull throw black baldies. Kind of weird. Even had a couple of the brockle faced ones throw classic black baldies, meaning the calf, who was only 1/4 Hereford, had a lot more white than the mama, who was 1/2 Hereford. But my best cow, who is a black baldy, threw her normal all black calf. I even had a Shorthorn cow bred to an Angus bull throw a brockle faced black baldy, kind of weird, maybe she has some Hereford in her or something. |
