[QUOTE="Jeanne - Simme Valley, post: 1750683, member: 968"] Maybe you had "some" white on the baldie calves, but your pictures show they don't ALWAYS get white out of Hereford genetics. Bottom line, if the cow is carrying a black gene, she can be bred to a red billie goat (kidding) and she could have a BLACK offspring. period. ONE black gene CAN produce a black calf. I get them all the time. And sometimes, I get a red calf out of a black cow and a black bull - both being hetero-black = 25% chance of a red calf. I enjoy genetics and have been dealing with color, diluter gene, horn gene for over 50 years. [/QUOTE]
