[QUOTE="Anonymous, post: 36235"] I don’t think you can always tell breed crosses just by color. For example: we have a blond cow. Her granddam was charolais (bought as bottle calf from reg herd). She (granddam) was AI’d to a black angus. That cow was, as best as I can describe it, carhart coat color. She (dam) was bred to a very roan shorthorn and that is how the blond cow was produced, her full sister, and if I remember right all the steers, were red, we were expecting some blue ones. The red cow produced a red calf when bred back to a shorthorn and now black baby wagyus. The blond cow is still at our place being bred to a red shorthorn bull (same one 4 years) and produces carbon copies of her self- Blond even tho they are 3/4 shorthorn. [/QUOTE]
