[QUOTE="moses388, post: 1648312, member: 27368"] I am used to breeding cattle that are a single color - Angus, Limousin, Lincoln Red, and Murray Grey. However, there is one baldy cow; this cow is out of an Angus bull. As you can see in the photo, I have bred her to some things including Murray Grey. [URL]https://drive.google.com/file/d/14MXgos7eysNoPQNHicJEMLvDCk8dG9s7/view?usp=sharing[/URL] I have not found any of these matings appealing, but this Spring she had a baldy Angus heifer. I think she looks good. I am not sure I want to start breeding white faced cattle, because you never know how the face will look.
