While we can all make an educated guess based on averages of the parents, anyone who tells you they can accurately predict the mature height of a calf is either naive or lying. Breed percentage is believed to be accurate, however there is no breed purity dna testing available in the U.S.   For more info and photos of Ernesto's parents please visit Our Website Our Facebook Page: Cyrus Ridge Farm
