Angus heifer. What do you think?

[FriedgesCharolais]

Here is a pb angus heifer I raised. She is a Dameron C-5 American Classic x MCATL By-Product. She has been weaned for 2 weeks now and is starting to come around pretty good I think just wondering what others thoughts on her.

That is a really good Angus JMO-Shes WAY thicker, and much more complete-yet pretty fronted and certainly more correct than most of the ones i've seen lately. (clapping) (clapping) O0

Nice heifer.  She's got the pieces to get there.  Pretty green at this point obviously.  The belly and shape will come with time.  How old is she?

Thank you for your replys. I do think she has the pieces to get there just like you said she is green. She has only been on feed for 2 weeks so she will get there. Im not a huge fan of pushing one at this stage of the game. I would rather have her sit middle of the classes in some of these early prospect shows than put the condition on her to get her to the top. She is a late February calf.

She's at about the right stage then.  Get her on some high protein (14-15%) feed and keep her full.  She'll do fine.

Yup. She is on a grower ration right now being pushed a little bit because I am going to take her to a sale the middle of September. Its a private treaty deal and I got a pretty good idea what I am going to need to let her go. But I want to see what I can get for her considering I have momma at home still bred back the same way.
