I got some dna results back from the AAA. The epds are not calculated yet. Besides a big BW what are your opinions on the dna profile ? Should I keep or sell? Her registration number is AAA# 20871516. Her dams DMI , YW,WW, RADG, Claw, Angle , CEM, HP , Ribeye combo are unmatched. Thanks.

Depends on your goal. If you want big numbers and have plenty of cheap feed, she fits the bill. I wouldn't be afraid of the calving ease and birth weights. The mature height and weight, huge negative $EN and high PAP probably would not work well they way we run them. In the right sale, that heifer could bring some money.

My goal is some money lol. I wonder what sale and what I should ask ? There is no other animal with this combination
 
Could look at Bases Loaded, Denim & Diamonds sales at Oklahoma City in January. I think there is one in Las Vegas around the same time as NFR (December) that has big numbered cattle. Needs to be halter broke, fluffed and stuffed. Get her on a show heifer feed program and find a good cattle fitter if you go to one of those sales.

200+ yearling weight
 
Given the pedigree and numbers if you "market" this animal to the right breeder you may find an opportunity. You could also reach out the AI companies. I know they keep tabs on the angus database looking for outliers.
