[QUOTE="Australian Cattleman, post: 558465, member: 285"] love our Red Baldies. We cross South Devon over our Herefords and get an animal that is as good as your black baldy. When we cross Hereford over South Devon we get a darker Red baldy. We can always tell a South Devon cross because the red markings always come in front of the ears. They generally don't have any white on their lower legs near the hooves.We cross these red baldies with a Brahman for their first calf and then back to a Hereford or South Devon depending on which part of the breeding program they are going into.The red baldy crossed with the South Devon will be a straight red and the Hereford cross ones will revert to a Hereford looking animal. My argument with the South Devon society is that they have never seized on the opportunity to promote the red baldy,instead have allowed the black baldy further inroads into the beef industry.I don't belong to the SD society but belong to the user friendly South Devon Cattle Association. Will post some pictures soon as I master the new computer and "wireless broadband" Colin [/QUOTE]
