She looks like she is going to make you a sow of a cow. Good luck with her!

Looks like she will make an really good awesome cow! Good luck with her!

How is she structurally? I know some Alias calves have had some ugly front ends.

my alias cow has lots of leather  but bred to something like i-80 (mine is bred to him right now) it would be gone walks alone worked pretty good carpe diem worked but he needs used on something with allot of rib shape

and the alias cow we have is probably one of our best producers consistent and all of her calves are as sound as she is no issues there lots of flex to her front legs unlike some alias calves so Ive heard
hope i helped in some way

do you think witch dotctor will do the job? we bred her to him for the simple fact she isnt that big and shes pretty fat, hopin everything turns out fine

Don't be a 100% surprised if she never gets big enough. Had a Walks Alone heifer that we bought off a sale that we had to ship  because she would have never been able to have a calf. I saw Walks Alone at Denver when he was there and they had him up on about 9 inches of chips and I could still see over him easily and I'm only 5'6". But just my opinion, take it or leave it.

she wont be to small i dont think the cows pretty darn big thats why we used walks alone but im expecting her to be moderate framed

good choice. I wouldn't reccommend him on little cows for that reason.
