[QUOTE="VLS_GUY, post: 750971, member: 13182"] Kenny, If you use a homozygous red Charolais and the Angus cows are homozygous black you will get black calves. If the cows are crossbred you will likely get a some reds. Of course you can solve that problem by using one of the few homozygous black Charolais bulls. My solution is to purposely use the Charolais diluter gene to my advantage to identify the calves as Charolais cross. It can be harder to identify red Charolais cross calves from the legion of other red calves being sold. [/QUOTE]
