[QUOTE="WalnutCrest, post: 1325188, member: 21715"] This is, I believe, the first of it's kind anywhere ... meet Diana ... born a couple of weeks ago ... a 55lb F1 heifer ... fullblood Mashona bull to a fullblood Aubrac heifer. The bull was heterozygous red/black; looks like the little lady got the red half of that equation. The Aubrac heifer was the best heifer of her year out of our best older cow (no longer living, unfortunately). It's kinda fun to see an enormous milestone in what's been a nearly-three year journey to get an Aubrac x. Mashona calf on the ground. Here she is nuzzling into mama before she's one hour old: [img]http://ranchers.net/photopost/data/500/medium/Aubrac_x_Mashona_-_02a_-_2016_03_25.jpg[/img] And, taking a snooze when the drink was done and the sun popped out: [img]http://ranchers.net/photopost/data/500/medium/Aubrac_x_Mashona_-_01a_-_2016_03_25.jpg[/img] I'll post additional pictures here as she develops.
