Brood Cow

[Coyote]

A picture is worth a thousand words. Whats your thousand words or so? Does the picture fit the headline? Is she a brood cow?

 

[SPRINGER FARMS MURRAY GRE]

Looks fine to me what I can see of her! :lol: ;-) :cboy:

 

[Brandonm2]

LOOKING GOOD!!! That cow certainly has plenty of volume.

Nice landscape too.

Is she a brood cow?

You bet she is.

 

[RedAngus121]

Very Very Nice Cow!

And its the right Color on top it :cboy: Im Pretty Sure its Red Angus What is that cow out of?

 

[Victoria]

Good looking cow!

 

[Coyote]

Sorry to pop your bubble RedAngus 121, She is not Red Angus,
She is a Shorthorn.

Nice brood cow, but what a beautiful view of the landscape. Wonderful place you have there!

 

[jaydill]

Beautiful cow and surroundings. :cboy:

 

[lakading]

How old is the calf?

Did she forget to drop it's twin?

 

[cfpinz]

She needs a WIDE LOAD banner.

Seriously though, nice cow, and from the looks of the calf and its nose, she appears to be a good milker.

we could tell much easier with a profile/side view of her to see what the rest of her looks like but even taht said i didn't know they had shorthorns like that still around.

Certainly nothing negative in that picture. Assuming she has a good udder and breeds back quick, I'd like to have a pasture full of cows like that with a good Hereford or Angus bull.

That's the way Shorthorns used to look. Haven;t seen any like that in a good many years. When we sold out in 1981 we had some and figured we'ld be able to just replace them with others, wrong

Very nice. Looks like she's doing her job. ;-)

 

[Diehard40]

Assuming that is her calf. I would say she is pretty good, I would also say someone has been laying the groceries to the old gal, or creep feeding the calf.

 

[Coyote]

Yes that is her calf. What you see is what she and her calf got all summer, no creep just good old short grass.

Too bad there is a myth that if a cow is in good shape and the calf is too that it has to come from a feed pail. We are all trying to raise a cow that is easy doing and that does a good job raising calves.

Very true. But by looking at the picture of that cow, I would think that the stocking rates could be bumped up in that pasture and not hurt a thing.
