That little bull calf is so cute but he is so different from any other on the farm. He is almost speckled in his color pattern. There is not another calf like him, and likely never will be again. We have never had anything like him and probably couldn’t even breed the same way and get the same results. He is unique.

Most of our cattle have very similar markings and color patterns. Most are shades of red with white on the feet and goggles around their eyes. We have a few that are “painted” with more white or are lighter in their coloring. Husband always says if he had black cattle he would never be able to tell them all apart. These girls are known by name simply because they all are distinct and recognizable even though they all look similar. Each has a little something that tells who they are.
