[QUOTE="ArmyDoc, post: 549289, member: 6832"] JGibson I like the head on the first cow, seems feminine to me. She also has a nice flat back. Nice over-all look, but she seems tall and a little slender/fine boned to me. Would you agree, or is she what you are shooting for? You mentioned she is tall, but that she's one of your favorites. Everyone seems to be talking about "moderate framed cows" these days. Do you componsate for the increased frame in any way in choosing what bull you put up to her? Or does it not matter because she does well for you in your environment? OK Jeanne, Fern is more like what I think of as a beef cow. I like her solid build. She looks low, wide and long, with a great big butt. You said she runs 1100-1250+. What frame size would you say she is? Do you run her on grass alone, or do you supplement? She definitely seems to be passing on that stout build to her calves! [/QUOTE]
