[QUOTE="Backbone Ranch, post: 1719775, member: 20754"] Well, the very first cow, WR Ruby, that I bought when I was 12 years old will be going to the sale barn at the end of the week. She has been a good one for us. She was born in the fall of 2008 in Missouri, and I purchased her after she had her first calf back in 2011. She has not missed a beat until this year. She had a wonderful disposition, was a terrific milker, always maintained great condition, and raised top calves year after year. The majority of her calves were bulls, but we do have two of her daughters in the herd currently and one of her sons is our primary herdsire. Quite a bit of the herd will be her descendants within the next couple years, so her legacy will continue. WR Ruby is pictured here at 4 1/2 years [ATTACH type="full"]11184[/ATTACH] Her 2013 heifer calf at weaning [ATTACH type="full"]11185[/ATTACH] BB Ruby: 2016 heifer pictured at 20 months of age [ATTACH type="full"]11186[/ATTACH] WR Ruby with her 2017 bull calf [ATTACH type="full"]11187[/ATTACH] BB Backbone's General: Her 2015 bull, pictured at 6 years of age.
