View Article  New Cow painting, Black Baldie, by Denise Rich
On my travels through Ramona in  San Diego areas outback, I happened upon a herd of what looked like large Panda Cows.  These are Black Baldies which if you are not familiar with them are a Hereford/Angus cross, and are the most popular Hereford cross I am told.  Those of you who are really experts, please feel free to leave a comment.
