[QUOTE="TexasJerseyMilker, post: 1849605, member: 42782"] Coachg I think Daphne is too old. She moves like she's old. She only has one teat that works, although I would dry her and bottle the calf. I'm afraid when she goes down with the birth she will never get up and we'll have to shoot her. I just don't want to risk it. But I have her daughter across the road if they will sell her back, thats my only chance. Warren wrote about Daphne's black half Angus daughter bred with Jersey semen "That calf has a 50/50 chance of being black. [B]If it comes out Jersey colored, then it will always throw the same color when bred to a Jersey.[/B] If it comes out back, when bred to a Jersey, then it will also have a 50/50 chance of throwing a black calf." Is this true or do I misunderstand it? Genetics are such a crap shoot anyway [/QUOTE]
