TH indicators

[tamarack]

I was wondering if there are any visual indicators of TH carrier animals a person told me once that you could tell by the hair (longer on head) or other ways. Thanks

Bump in the middle of the forehead. You can feel it when they are born.  Check out the head photos of the MAB clones on Lautners blog.

Really I do not think you can, hair and bone is supposed to be, but I have a Dr. Who / Ali heifer that's all hair and bone no TH in her pedigree.
Now if you ask AJ all the steers winning are, so I guess if you go stand by the back drop every calf that gets it picture is. So if the calf looks like a winner it must be a TH carrier, at least that is what AJ says.
