Pics of my calf

Here's a pic of Millie. This was taken in early Sept., so she's grown a bit since then. In the pic she's approx. 2.5 months old.

She looks cute with that brockle face of hers. I'm thinking that the momma's a red angus or a red limousine.

Crossed with Santa Gertrudis. Who put the ear tag in the ear?

Looks a bit like our Connie! She's a Shorthorn/Hereford cross and this is her baby picture.

With the little bit of ear and the hump, I'm gonna agree with agmantoo. I think Santa Gertrudis.

We have a Jersey/Herford Jerseyxherford cross, she has similar markings. I say the many crosses, because the dam was a cross, but the dams sire was her brother who was out of a jersey. Cleo in question was out of the same brother. So yeah bit of inbreeding, but she throws nice calves!
