[QUOTE="txag, post: 8042, member: 8"] i looked up Jalapeno but couldn't find Black Max. Black Max could be black (he could be either homozygous black or heterozygous) & Jalapeno's dam could also be black but if she's black she must be heterozygous to have a red calf (Jalapeno). Jalapeno's sire is red (from my genetic discussion, bb) so he can only pass on a red gene. Jalapeno's dam must either be red (bb) or heterozygous black (Bb) and in Jalapeno's case have passed on the red gene and not the black gene. Thus, for color, Jalapeno is bb. No black gene. Another note: Two black animals can have a red offspring but two red parents can't have a black. [/QUOTE]
