Pictures: Roughed out Grant's New heifer today, Purchased off SP classifieds

[RSC]

Just wanted to share and get everyones thoughts of her. She is a Heatwave X Windsor/Kodiak/WMW.  Planning on showing her as a market heifer at county fair and State Fair.

she is really clean fronted and smooth shouldered' seems powerful .. seems to have a jump muscle bulge on her topline just in front of her hips... I think she will do very well as a market heifer... when was she born? what is her weight?

Need to weigh her, guessing in the mid 600's.  She is an end of April.

is she a little light? seems like her weaning weight must have been about 500 if she is about 650 now... will you be able to get her to 1250 in 6 months?  she will need to gain 3 lbs daily and she is not thin  now...
will she be big enough to win a market class champ beside a 1350 steer?

I think that is something to remember when dealing with HW and his sons... may need to pull some performance from the dam side

she still looks very nice and I think you will do well with her

Very good questions and ones I've thought about.  She's well worth the shot.  We lost our steer from a freek accident and were looking for a good one at the last minute, purchased this heifer as well as a good PB Angus steer from Freddy.

I own his dam, Jessica.  Meysenburg Show Cattle and I shared the flushed that Dr. Business came from.  If you have a picture, I'd love to see her.  I have a full sister to Doc that is coming with a Gigelo Joe calf this March.  Very excited to see her in production as she is really developing into a very nice female.
