Unusual colored calf

Help Support CattleToday:

Do Angus cows ever have pink udders? Are they allowed any white on their bellies or udder? Just curious. My Dexters are allowed minimal ventral white up to the navel. The white is thought to have come from Roman cattle (which were white) that were imported into Ireland during the rise of monasteries and Catholicism. Kerry Cattle (another very old Irish breed that is predominately black) have the same white markings that crop up in the same areas. I always wondered if White Park Cattle got their white from Roman cattle in the British isles.

Watch out for roamin' cattle. :lol:
 
The dam may also have some Braunvieh in her. I have several and that white nozzle is familiar and they throw the tigerstripes on occasion, particularly with Herefords, but also on Angus.
