[QUOTE="jnowack, post: 218499, member: 3954"] Here we go again. Horns and scurs are different gene pairs. The reason you don;t see scurs on horned animals is because they grow from the same area. Other then that, scurs and horns have no bearing on each other. dun[/quote] NOT EXACTLY. THE HORN GENE MUST BE PRESENT FOR SCURS TO BE EXPRESSED. HOMO POLLED CATTLE ARE ALWAYS SMOOTH POLLED AND SCURRED CATTLE ARE ALWAYS HETERO POLLED. ALSO YOU SEE MORE SCURRED BULLS THAN FEMALES BECAUSE SCURS ARE DOMINANT IN BULLS AND RECESSIVE IN FEMALES.
