So i have a calf that i thought was a little bull but i saw him pee like a girl. He looks like he has penis but i cant tell. Is this possible if so why did he come out like this and is this rare.
 
Search the boards for "freemartin", you'll find out more about it then you care to know

You have a heifer(female) calf. On many very young heifer calves the navel area looks like it might be a penis sheath until they get a bit older. As said above, the pee test is conclusive. Good luck with your (female) calf. Jim
 
Good points. I skimmed over the "but I can't tell" part without it registering.
