[QUOTE="cbcr, post: 1519138, member: 16303"] The first Black Charolais was born in 1993 and was DNA tested to verify that the calf was truly 100% Charolais and after several different test was confirmed that it was. The Charolais have a "Red" factor and their color can vary from a light tan to a dark red, of which the dark red along with the black are not allowed to be registered in the US Association or to be shown. There are some Charolais that show some gray pigmentation, and so by using the darker pigmented animals and breeding them together they started getting some to come out black which has caught on in Canada and there are a few breeders here in the US. While it is true that the American Charolais Association will not register or recognize the Black Charolais, we have had a breeder contact us and they have registered a few with us. They also have a Black Charolais composite that are called Equalizers. [/QUOTE]
