[QUOTE="lithuanian farmer, post: 1567159, member: 19683"] A bit of Charolais sure can make things interesting! This girl is 50% black Angus, 18.75% Charolais, abit over 9% Limousine and 6%BB. She was born as a very light tan colour and in a couple months turned grey. That was her first calf from a red limousine bull- black heifer. [img]https://i.postimg.cc/pTcbP09N/021-4.jpg[/img] Her 2nd calf from the same limousine bull was a tan bull calf. The third calf again from a limousine bull: [img]https://i.postimg.cc/mrzGM7FZ/DSCF3024.jpg[/img] Now she's in calf with Charolais and it'd be a huge surprise if the calf wasn't white. Have another cow, which is 50%Angus, 18.75% Char. Her first calf from a limousine was white, second was black and the third was tan. Waiting for another limox calf from her. Wonder what colour will be this time. One more cow: 25%Angus, 37.5% Charolais, 18.75% Limo. The first calf from the limousine: [img]https://i.postimg.cc/90285Zb3/003-5.jpg[/img] The calf is already 2nd calver and both calves from limousine were red. Another calf from the same cow and bull: [img]https://i.postimg.cc/PrY0rJgf/DSCF3025.jpg[/img] Have bred this heifer to another red limousine and she gave us this..: [img]https://i.postimg.cc/XYdRNGr8/DSCF3031.jpg[/img] 79.7% red limousine... If only it was a heifer, I'd have been very tempted to use limousine again to see how many generations it would take to change the colour. [/QUOTE]
