I have lots of calves born that color. They all turn black. But, it's a cool color if stayed that way.
Looks like she has quite an udder, too! What kind is she?Went to check the lease place a bit ago.

Frosty ears had hers. She wanted noooo part of that straight piped hog. Best pic I could get after getting off the bike and walking a bit. Looks like she's got a brahma calf. And fast too!! Keeping right up with speedy mom. Hopefully she brings it up to feed tomorrow eve.

That's a good question! Crossbred of some sort. My buddy thought braunvieh cross. But she's got a bit of ear. Pretty good pic here...Looks like she has quite an udder, too! What kind is she?
Brown Swiss, Brahman, homozygous black something or other. The percentages are debatable. I'm betting the dam was half and half BS/Black.Crossbred of some sort. My buddy thought braunvieh cross. But she's got a bit of ear. Pretty good pic here...

Silly heifers....
She was bought bred.Yes she is! Was that cow bred when you got her, or is she by one of your bulls?
Not the greatest for sure.
Ya. It may go 5 years with out a problem or it may cause one next year. The only thing I know is it always causes a problem in a bad year when you don't need one.Not the greatest for sure.
Calf is making it better tho. Undecided on one more go round for her. Cow prices are so crazy, and this one was cheap.
Probly not as good as the home she came from. They had those 2 cows for years.She was doing a bang up job with them too..... hope she got a good home....
