What colors of the progeny of Shorthorn x Angus?

[Taurus]

We got new cows from my father's customer, most of them were commerical red angus, however the customer throw an extra cow in the group, a red roan shorthorn. We used Black Angus bulls for breeding with our commerical angus herd and a small group of Belties, we always got black calves out of both groups. The bulls we used are not registered. What colors I should expecting from a progeny of a red roan shorthorn cow x Black Angus bull? She is carrying a calf at this moment (the previous owner used red angus bull on her).

Most likely either black or blue.

Varies w/ roan...

Neigbor got a Red Angus cow from us and bred her to a black angus. From that she had a black heifer. He bred them both to a roan shorthorn bull. The black heifer had a black calf with a roan belly and a white tail, the cow had a red calf with a red roan belly and a white tail.

Probably Black or Blue Roan. If the bull carries the red gene there is also the possibility of Red or Red Roan too.
