Have a couple of them. Have an couple of angus cows that always throws red calves when crossed with a lim bull. And have some of their offspring too that are red angus too. Also bought in a AAX calf this year that is red too.

Have a red heifer from LZE and a Limx cow. She will be put in calf hopefully later this summer. Her mother was mad, but she is mighty quiet. I have great hopes for her but haven't yet decided what to put her to.

It's the wife's iPad i wouldn't know how to turn of screen rotation or chance doing it for fear of getting in trouble. The red Angus still looks like a great animal even if upside down.

I used ZLL on what few pb Angus cows I have and im delighted with calves, are tiny at birth but turn inside out at about 10 weeks.....last few years dairy men around here asking have black bulls red blood in them they will throw a few reds off fr cows and that means more €€ in calf mart

Yes he's throwing good calves. Bulled 5 heifers to him this year and very good calves from him. Small at birth but grow like hell. None of them came red although one from a CH heifer is Ch coloured.

I had one calf from a limx cow and card came back limx.......as for calving have no worries about ZLL his calves are tiny but bulk up after a month or two ....but that's not saying all red angus are the same ...this from Irish AA website WHAT ARE THE CHANCES?

Many people often wonder “What are the chances of breeding a Red Angus?” The following is a short piece on how Red Angus occur naturally as a result of various different matings.
•Red X Red all calves will be red (even if any parent had a black parent)
•Black (red gene carrier) X Red: 50% of all calves will be red and 50% will be black. the Reds will be pure red and the Blacks will all be red gene carriers.
•Black (non red carrier) X Red: 100% calves will be black (red carriers)
•Black (red carrier) X Black (red carrier): 75% of calves will be black and 25% will be red. Of the Blacks, two thirds (or 50% of total progeny) will be red carriers, and one third (or 25% of total progeny) will be non red carriers.

Who has ZLL? I have a heifer soon ready for bulling from LZE (Lanigan's Red Blaze) from Progressive Genetics and I was looking to get an unrelated bull to put her to, she will be old enough end June/early July.

bova have him.
