[QUOTE="Nesikep, post: 1516290, member: 9096"] If the cow is homo polled and hetero-scur, and bred to a homo polled non scurred bull, you should end up with 50% of bull calves with scurs and 0% scurred heifers (though 50% will have one set of scur genes) If the bull is hetero scurred and bred to the same cow, you'll have 25% homo scurred, 50% hetero scurred, and 25% non scurred calves.. so of those calves, you'll have 75% of the bulls expressing scurrs and 25% of the heifers Clear as mud?
