longhorn, LH cross

Horns...certainly a mix....maybe some beefmaster in him....red angus....to dark for limousin...but,...maybe.

So...what does it's mama look like?

 

[flaboy]

OK, I will go out on a limb here. I say Red Angus/Jersey.

I have to agree with tarentaise.

Her mother was a fourteen year old Beefmaster/Beefalo cross (big black cow with some white frost on fer sides) that fell back in the early spring and injured herself and did not make it. Her father is a black/white Longhorn. This is my bottle baby. I know that's not a great picture but she's a pretty good calf.

Here's a couple more pictures of the bottle calf.

Rustler,
She'll probably make a nice cow...what plans do you have for her? Those horns are going to be big...with her genes. :roll:

Ah Ha, if I had seen that belly flap I would have never said Angus. Rustler you did that on purpose didn't you? :lol: :lol:
