Someone was asking about her when I posted the pictures of some of the other replacements. Well, we do still have her, and I still can't get a picture that does her justice. But, anyways, her she is.

Is it just the ground and the way she is standing or is that her actual stance. If it is her stance is it genetic? If so what breed is most likely the cause? I have a good reason for asking.

Based on the fence line in the background, it looks like you got your camera tilted a little. Maybe a little high ended but like you say, she should grow out of most of that. Of course, you could cull her to my place since I'm always in the market for culls like that. ;-)

She is definitely more muscled than her sister. Her sister has more more than the average cow in the herd though. The sister is rising 3 years in that picture. Raised a 600 lb calf, and has been grazing out up til 10 days ago or so.
She was actually lighter than I thought she would be, but that could be because I was guessing high.
I think we will keep her and see how she performs. The biggest problem I see with her is that she has a very 'tight' stride. She almost waddles.
