Adorable!

What breed?

I don't want to jump in, but to me he looks to be a Beefmaster. I could be wrong, so don't quote me on it.

That, was my belief as well.

Mother is charlais and father is simbrah

Which explains those ears.

Nice looking calf!!

Got a pic of sire and dam?

I was close....sorta. My second guess was going to be either Braford or Simbrah, but Beefmaster was the first thing that popped into my mind.

He's a cutie, that's for sure. You considering raising him as a bull, or what?

Ain't that the way it always is?
New calf hits the ground, momma cleans him up and gets him on his feet--he's lost those wobbly legs already and is walkin around just like he belongs. Owner drives or walks out and sees him for the first time--and immediately thinks--"That, is gonna be my 9or someone's) next HERD BULL!!"
Never fails.

Domino is a fine looking fella! Love that shiny coat.

 

[Pumpkinpup]

Thank you so much! Domino is a pocket pet too, loves attention and you can just do anything with him. I don't see me getting rid of him any time soon, lol. Real laid back and easy going guy and if he keeps producing beauties like this heifer then I don't know how I would replace him either.

Gee that looked like a bull calf from where I was sitting. That large naval threw me off some.

So I guess I'll rephrase the question then: Are you, Pumpkin, considering keeping her as a replacement heifer?

Thanks for catching that for me SHF.

 

[Lothiriel]

I think I am going to come steal her tonight.... She is THE most adorable heifer I've seen yet!

 

[autumnprairie]

she is beautiful.
