[QUOTE="Wooly, post: 7497714, member: 3924"] It was a pedigree Sussex......... but don't get many coming out like that. I should have left its nuts on. I have got a homozygous polled Sussex bull. The only trouble is the odd heifer has grown small stumps on their head after a couple of years. Better just to have a traditional bull and disbud the horns rather than have ugly stumps ! There are big herds in Africa. They were taken there in the 1960's as the Africans found that Sussex cattle didn't have eye problems caised by the Tetsy fly. Something to do with the dark colour of the Sussex cattles head, whereas the Hereford, with their white faces had eye problems. Big herds in Australia as well. [/QUOTE]
