[QUOTE="Nesikep, post: 1272214, member: 9096"] I'll admit to being a little biased.. I had one that was a spitting image of Martha.. she was the biggest eater and had the smallest calf every year... A little of what I see on each one.. I can't say I see anything that stands out as a 'wow' heifer, but depending on your goals they may all make decent cows.. Angel: Looks fair, though her topline seems to leave something to be desired, seems to have some length but if she flaps those ears she may very well take off :P Rose: Nice topline, doesn't look pinched in the heart or the waist, for as much as I can see she's probably be my pic Martha: She may recover from the pinkeye in time, at least mostly. Chrome will take a hit depending on your market, which is part of the reason I lean toward the first two Lilly : Part of it may be her stance in the picture, but she seems short to me, for coloring I like her color better than the mixed roan, but that's just me How are the dams? Have you kept any siblings from them and how did they perform? That would be something I really look at as well. Whatever you choose I hope it works out for you :) [/QUOTE]
