Of 112 recipients of 112 chimeric embryos, 29 (26 percent) were pregnant at 60 days. Of these, 24 (83 percent) produced full-term calves and 5 (17 percent) aborted between 2 and 5 months' gestation. From the 24 full-term pregnancies, 2 sets of twins and 22 singleton calves were born. Of the 22 singletons, 15 were chimeric including 6 bull calves (one Brahman-Friesian and 5 Brahman-HS) that were overt chimeras. All the overt chimeras resulted from aggregation of halves of early morulae (precompaction).
