Nice pics MM,
That bottom cow is LONG. I would love to have 50 or 60 just like her in my pasture.

Wow Milkmaid,
Your neighbor certainly likes depth of rib!! I could stand to see a couple of them with more bone and I wonder if he didn't feed them almost a little too much (too much grain can lead to fat deposits around the udder resulting in lifetime decreased milk production); but all in all I have to say excellent set of heifers. I think they will do well for him.

Heifers you said ? Wow. awesome cattle
They are angus. Registered angus. I thought you folks would enjoy looking at some of these girls - it's taken me awhile, but I've seen enough pictures on here that I'm starting to recognize good beef cows when I see them. 8)
I actually don't believe they're as fat as they appear. I saw them hunting up a lot of their own feed this past winter and pawing through the snow. I know they were getting a little bit of dry hay but I seriously doubt they were getting grained - although I can't say that with absolute certainty.

They are waaayy deep, large volume heifers that were made to flesh easily or I think he could really have had problems. Look at the pics....ribs, hooks, pins, shoulders!! are all completely covered with condition and they look like they got 20 lbs of fat hanging up under the brisket. Those heifers are FAT. Now they might not be ready to grade USDA high choice but they are on the heavy side for breeding heifers.....I don't think they are ""too fat"", but he is walking a fine line to me. Of course the rancher or manager sees them all the time (wheras I have just one photo) and from the look of those heifers, he has done this before so I bet he didn't go too far with them.

These are really great heifers - deep thick clean - BUT - don't they look OLD for being HEIFERS? Look more like 3 year olds, and don't look bagging up yet.
