[QUOTE="TexasJerseyMilker, post: 1786145, member: 42782"] I'm not saying Murry's mutt is half Jersey. It is unlikely anyone around there was using a Jersey bull on black cows. I just want to show the varieties of red and black that can come from a black Angus sire. Here was Daphne's first calf. That steer grew up and sold for almost$1000. Except for his spindlier legs he looked like a pure red Angus. Daphne's half Angus calves after that showed more and more dairy character and brought less and less, but I am showing the variety of coat colors. The blacker calves did blacken up like Murry says. [ATTACH type="full" alt="#1 Bisquit.JPG"]25634[/ATTACH] This one got darker but still showed a lot of reddishness. [ATTACH type="full" alt="#3 Chocolate.jpg"]25630[/ATTACH] This one blackened up but showed a tinge of red around the ears. [ATTACH type="full" alt="#2 Burnt Bisquit.JPG"]25631[/ATTACH] This heifer had a tinge of red too. I tried to make a milk cow out of her, but she had the Scottish (Angus) disposition. [ATTACH type="full" alt="#4 Lill.jpg"]25632[/ATTACH] This one born black as the ace of spades and stayed that way. [ATTACH type="full" alt="#5 Calfus Colosus.JPG"]25633[/ATTACH] Another heifer calf with a tinge of red. Look how she turned out. She didn't make a milk cow either. I sold her for a beef brood cow across the road. [ATTACH type="full" alt="100_1977 (1).JPG"]25635[/ATTACH] [ATTACH type="full" alt="Blackie.JPG"]25638[/ATTACH] This heifer was sired by a really good looking black Angus bull. Turns out his mother was a Smokie. He was 1/4 Charolaise and look how that hooked up.
