[QUOTE="KNERSIE, post: 669466, member: 4353"] Back to the pigment issue... at best its very unpredictable and it seems that once you've found a bull that sires pigment more or less consistantly you better stick with him for a while or atleast never go back to one with a dubious family history when it comes to pigment. I just had a linebred calf (halfsib mating) born out of two fully pigmented parents, both grandparents on both sides are fully pigmented and yet this calf almost have no pigment. Just to throw another spanner in the works, the same bull sired a goggle eyed calf out of a better than halfsib (paternal halfsib out of paternal halfsib dams) of the abovementioned cow that has no pigment with a dam with also no pigment.
