[QUOTE="randiliana, post: 562882, member: 2308"] Well, his dam would have been Pp. So if his sire was pp, there is a 50% chance that he is homo polled (pp) and a 50% chance that he is hetero polled (Pp). So you can take it from there. If he is homo polled(pp), 100% of his calves will be polled, regardless of the cow's makeup. If he is hetero polled(Pp), it will totally depend on the cows. If they are homo polled, then the calves will all be homo polled. If the cows are Pp, 25% of the calves will be horned (PP), 50% of the calves will be hetero polled (Pp) and a 25% of the calves will be homo polled. It works like this Pp x pp = Pp, Pp, pp and pp Pp x Pp = PP, Pp, Pp and pp [/QUOTE]
