We had kind of a tough calving year. This heifer is one of my favorites. She doesn't have a ton of hair but her mother always seems to produce a fast growing great steer calf. Dam is 6 years old and this is her first heifer. I was excited to see her. We lucked out and were able to lease a clean up bull last year that was Cunia x Daines 733 cow ( mother of Daines Survivor and Dianes Hairy Crumb). He was just a good all around bull. Her Dam is Byland on Top and Wakaru Prima Donna on bottom.
I would apprecaite any feed back on this lady. She is a last week of first week of June baby.She was tough to get pics of and I sat for quiet a while. Camera battery died and I had to use my back up camera. It is hard to appreciate her hip and top from these pictures. She is very feminine but has a great hip in her.

I really like her thickness, and she looks nice and clean fronted... I think she is a little long in the leg for her body and may always give the impression you would like to shrten her legs a little, I am an expert at that because some of the best I have raised have looked that way... overall very nice, would be nice for someone else to comment on the "long legs" and ways to breed around it

Thanks to all for kind comments. She has pretty good leg on her as well. No structural issues at all.
The twins are growing like weeds. Attached are a pic of them. They are pretty nice ladies. Great temperment and they hair gals. I am anxious to see how they develop.
