[QUOTE="Tod Dague, post: 23208, member: 61"] Frankie I was originally responding to Ia4angus's post that many breeders were trying to breed out black but could not (see the post below from Ia4angus). My whole point that it was exactly opposite. The Angus association has tried unsuccessfully to breed out the reds for decades. The Red Angus Association does allow the registration of black animals because we were never on a campaign to eliminate one color or the other as the Angus Association tried to do. The black gene has to be introduced from an outside source such as a black angus. A true "Red" Angus will never throw a black animal unless breed to a black animal. A black animal could throw a red calf if breed to a red or black animal depending on the hidden genetics so it is much easier to breed out black than breed out red. I’m not saying that red is better than black just trying to correct a misunderstanding. Tod [/QUOTE]
