[QUOTE="greggy, post: 1617496, member: 38479"] Nah, prob about half inch, have not changed, are not obviously visible like the others, but then again one has a red coat.....hers is white and hair is longer. What will happen if I keep moving them so they do not fuse to the skull ? .... wishful thinking probably :) If horns, they will have to fuse at some point ? She is a friendly calf, but I have a Jersey with horns, her are quite sharp at the points, and they know how to use them, I can tell the steer will use them, it is the other animals I am concerned about of course, I guess if I have too, I can cut, or at least take any sharp points off. I am getting the gist of the breeding, the bull would have to carry the 2 polled genes, then she would throw polled if it is horns, I am not sure if it is scurs what will happen, but I am not worried about scurs. So always choose a bull that carrys the correct or pure polled genes, right ? If doing AI, would seem elementary to do it this way either way if you want polled animals. [/QUOTE]
