In my opinion or what I think I have learned about what causes cattle to have horns, scurs, or to be polled? This opinion has been formed through much research and many years of cattle breeding.The polled or hornless condition is dominant over the horned condition in cattle. The scurred condition is the result of incomplete dominance. Although scurs look like horns, they are attached to the skin, not to the skull of the animal.In most breeds of cattle, horns are produced by a recessive gene, and the polled gene is dominant.If you breed two animals with horns, the offspring will have horns; but if you breed two polled animals, the offspring could be horned or polled.The horned calf o

If you work for yourself, and are perhaps a teeny weeny bit resistant to selling, this wake up call is for you. It is possible that "learning to sell" -- as opposed to learning how to promote yourself -- is not on your priority list. But, if you truly care about your customers, self promotion deserves your attention.Maybe you feel that it is inappropriate to promote yourself in any way, especially when you meet new people. Have you ever you met someone who asked about what you do, and watched their look of confusion when you gave them a barely adequate answer, all because you didn't want to seem pushy or self-interested?I imagine you have the most sincere

The Chinese developed a technique of 'inside painting' their snuff bottles to prevent outside decorations being chipped or discoloured when knocked or subject to strong light or heat. Paint was applied using matchstick shaped bamboo sticks with a hooked end to reach inside the bottle, a painstaking process that took weeks or months, sometimes years.
The best of Chinese and Japanese creations are rare and very expensive especially bearing the artist's signature, as you'll see from the following recent eBay results:
* Two Antique Enamelled Oriental Snuff Bottles fetched $10,000. These were hand painted types and went at Live Auction.
* A snuff bottle decorated enamel on copper (Japanese I think) went for $4750.00, also at Live Auction. What surprised me here was the surprising lack of detail given about the bottle but the pictures were great and no doubt lifted an otherwise very poor listing.
* Two 19th century jade snuff bottles made in China fetched $4250.00 and $2,100.00 respectively.
Numerous other Chinese 18th and 19th century bottles fetched hundreds of dollars apiece and, in a long list of Oriental snuff bottles, just one failed to reach its reserve and remained unsold.
