I really don't think she's got longhorn in her. Too beefy...

Possibilities I've come up with are:

Speckle Park
British White x Angus
American White Park x Angus

Thank you guys for your suggestions! I was almost positive there wasn't any longhorn, she's way too big for that, even though she has the color of one. I'm pretty sure she's a Speckle Park, but like IluvABbeef said, BW x Angus or AWP x Angus sounds like a possibility too. I guess I'll never really know, but she raises great calves and she's really tame and gentle with the other cows.

Thanks guys!

I must get a pic of my red head neighbor's Longhorn on here. This heifer would give a choice carcass. Enough grain will make anything fat.

Nice looking cows. They're kinda fun to look at with all those speckles.
