Well Cowboy, i'm going to have to disagree with most of the previous replies. She is a Limi, an exotic breed. With that said, she has a great front end, and extended, clean neck. For a May heifer, her frame score fits the mold real well. Bone is adequate; about what we should expect from a Limi of this age. Way too early to judge how her leg hair might be, but her body hair is way above average for a Limi show heifer. Considering the heat this Summer, and the lack of any green grass to lie in, I wouldn't be concerned about leg hair just yet. She is really green, and should fill out in a hurry on full feed. That flank will drop with maturity, but is not what we would consider to shallow, again, for a May calf. I say she will stand some pretty stiff competition in the Limi shows.


Excellant positive observations.

I agree and would like to see more photos as this heifer grows.

The very Best of luck with this calf.
