[QUOTE="Brandonm22, post: 659660, member: 7645"] LISTEN and LEARN. Most people in the commercial world DO NOT have purebred cows....even when they are black. You cross a horned bull on cows descended from horned cows 2 to 4 generations back and some horns will appear (if this is a put together stockyard group it could be more than a few). Worse, now the next generation ALL have the horned gene. Come back with an Angus bull on those MOSTLY polled baldie heifers and you get all polled calves. Cross another HORNED bull on that F3 generation and a bunch of horns are liable to pop up. IF you want to have ALL polled cattle all the time don't ever use horned bulls. [/QUOTE]
