[QUOTE="Farmgirl, post: 147295, member: 832"] Cypress, I was thinking about your original question and Jeanne's response too. If all your cows are homozygous black and you use a heterozygous bull the calves will all be BB or Bb. All calves will be black but some will have one red gene. If you keep heifers from that mating you should still be able to keep the offspring black if the next bull you use is homozygous black. Hope this makes sense. Farmgirl [/QUOTE]
