[QUOTE="Nesikep, post: 1567576, member: 9096"] The basic color is usually not too hard to get close to correct, but the patterns are really tough! With Hector, it seems like he doesn't change the pattern.. how the cow looks is pretty much how the calf looks, perhaps a little darker on the roan cows Cow with white socks had a calf with the identical white socks Brocklefaced cow that has had many roan calves had a brocklefaced roan calf Solid red cows all had solid red calves White roan cow had a 50/50 roan calf today [url=https://postimg.cc/XGfChv92][img]https://i.postimg.cc/fLFfVtyh/IMG-20190303-123333.jpg[/img][/url] [url=https://postimg.cc/G4fGTVcj][img]https://i.postimg.cc/jjxXmYmB/IMG-20190307-100144.jpg[/img][/url] [url=https://postimg.cc/XGS5Q5BG][img]https://i.postimg.cc/SsjGQ7yr/IMG-20190317-121236.jpg[/img][/url] This calf is more roan than she looks while wet here [url=https://postimg.cc/8sGWvhVx][img]https://i.postimg.cc/2jbxPw9j/IMG-20190317-132500.jpg[/img][/url] [url=https://postimg.cc/WqskPPns][img]https://i.postimg.cc/8c6BMpff/IMG-20190317-144250.jpg[/img][/url] Last bull was a bit different, though he didn't have MUCH white (just white socks), If the cow carried white, the calf would have more, it was kinda an additive formula [/QUOTE]
