[QUOTE="gizmom, post: 1152627, member: 13402"] I don't mean to stir up anything but that is not a great looking udder the cow is nice and if she is ten then the udder isn't bad but it for sure isn't what I would call nice. She looks like she has a balloon teat in this photo. I am predisposed to dislike the breed our son decided he wanted some purebred Maine cows back years ago, he used his steer money to buy one out of Kansas. After the third 120 pound calf he decided he didn't want anymore of them I had decided after the first one. They were very docile but the calves were all over the board. I will admit that this was close to twenty years ago so I am sure many improvements have been made in the genetics of the breed, but I haven't forgotten that big ole black and white spotted cow and those big ole calves. That is another thing when the breed was first introduced they were red and white and black and white now most are black maybe turning them black helped out on the birth weight issue. Gizmom [/QUOTE]
