[QUOTE="Nesikep, post: 1240366, member: 9096"] From what I understood of coloration, is the black will ALWAYS show if they have any black genes, the red will show if there's no black to mask it... thus a red animal can't carry a black gene. The other way around, a homo-black cow or bull will always throw black calves regardless of if the mate is red or black, however a hetero black cow bred to a red bull will throw about 50% black/50%red calves.. if she's bred to another hetero black bull, it'll be 75% black, 25% red calves.
