[QUOTE="Anonymous, post: 4497"] My apologies to you. Brain freeze on my part. The word homozygous is often used in purebred circles to indicate a dominant factor (black or polled). If you pick up a breeder magazine or A.I. catalogue you often see advertized homozygous polled or black never homozygous horned or red due to the fact that black and polled are dominant in the first cross. After that its a new game. Don't forget that diluter gene though when breeding a black animal to a red. That red sometimes isn't as strong as you might think. > If it's red what would it be if > not homozygous red, two red genes, > no black. Same applies to horns. > dun [/QUOTE]
