Subject: Charlois/Angus crossed calves throwing bleached spotted calves??


North Central Kansas

One of my new charlois bulls is throwing calves with bleached white spots.  I'm wondering if this is common or is it a genetic problem I need to address.  I've had charlois bulls before on my black angus cows and never seen this. All my cows are solid back.  I got several new charlois bulls last year to put on my black cows and I've had five of these funny colored calves.  It seems to all be from the same sire, but there was one calf born today from a different bull that may have a small spot too.  Will these calves get discounted because of this?
