Historically, Ayrshires were from several unknown breeds crossed to native cattle of the County of Ayr in Scotland. It is not known how the the different strains of cattle were crossed to form the Ayrshire breed is not exactly known. Back in the late 1700's they were mostly black, but brown coloration and spotting started to appear. It is hypothesized that in 1750 the breed started improvements, with the infusion of Shorthorns and Holsteins into the foundation breeding stock. Also, cattle from the Channel Islands where also used to improve the Ayrshire breed to what we know today. Remember though, Ayrshires are not crossbred animals, but purebreds.
80-100# is a reasonable range for an Ayrshire calf.
The only two I know of are (Northern) Spotted Owl and Barred Owl. They create the Sparred Owl.
People think mules (cross between horse and donkey) are useful, so they do the necessary breeding frequently.
Ayrshire dairy cows originated in the County of Ayr in southwest Scotland. They are known for their distinctive red and white markings and are prized for their ability to produce high-quality milk.
Ayrshire derived its name from the Old English term "Ayr," which refers to the River Ayr that flows through the region. The suffix "-shire" indicates a division or district, commonly used in England and Scotland to denote a county. The area has a rich history, with its name appearing in historical records as early as the 12th century. Overall, Ayrshire's name reflects both its geographical features and its administrative status.
The results of a cross breeding are no longer pedigreed.
In South Ayrshire, the winning vote is no. 47,247 voted no. 34,402 voted yes.
homozygous
it counts only to cross breeding, in my opinion.
In East Ayrshire, the winning vote is no. 44,442 voted no. 39,762 voted yes. This vote is a major blow to the yes campaign and major victory to the no campaign. The yes campaign identified East Ayrshire as one of their key areas. East Ayrshire itself on the other hand clearly disagrees.
The correct pronunciation for Ayrshire is "AIR-sher."
