[QUOTE="ANAZAZI, post: 1222211, member: 7541"] Yellow whiteface does not breed yellow whiteface. Breed it to a red herd - 25% looks like the bull, 25% yellow, the rest red or red whiteface Breed it to a Charolais herd - roughly 25% looks like the Bull, another 25% yellow with no white face, the rest white or "white whiteface". On black cows, no yellow, gray instead, some 50% whiteface. On spotted cattle all bets off. Even bred to a herd of yellow whiteface cows you are down to 37,5% yellow whiteface. And bred to Hereford cows you could end up with 50%. In hardly any of these situations anyone would notice that your steers are brothers. Apart from colour, which is not important on the rail but likely important in the sale barn, there is no consistency in other traits either, not carcass traits, not maternal traits, not size, and birth weights all over the place. :2cents: [/QUOTE]
