[QUOTE="Jeanne - Simme Valley, post: 804657, member: 968"] EXACTLY - doesn't make any difference "how strong the bull is horned" :shock: A horned bull/cow has two horned genes. Period - none are STRONGER than the other. If a horned animal breeds with a HOMOZYGOUS POLLED animal, the offspring is POLLED (heterozygous Polled - meaning 1 horn gene inherited from the Horned parent & 1 polled gene inherited from the Polled parent) As mentioned, they COULD have SCURRS - were the calves mostly bull calves that had the "horns"?
