Thanks everyone, I'm real excited about the calf. :banana:

Cow appears to be flush worthy base upon the calf quality so far.

 

[RD-Sam]

The previous owner had intended to flush the cow, but I bought her before he got a chance. :lol2: That calf is out of Woodhill Foresight, I want to try one or two more bulls with her and see which breeding does the best, then I will probably do some flushing. :nod:

Linebred Bon View Gammer?

 

[RD-Sam]

Yes, the calf has her on second generation on the sires side, and third generation on the dams side. The dam was linebred on New Trend 315 also.

I like the cow. We can wait and see on the calf. It is a bit small for me to call.

That's my thoughts as well. I really like the way she looks at this point, but we have to wait and see how she grows, it's looking good so far though.

Nice looking pair. Off to a great start.

Gammer cow family goes back to 1948.

Actually older than that. This one has no date and is about three generations older.
