[QUOTE="Brandonm2, post: 332127, member: 2095"] I will confess that over the years I have owned cattle that were not big enough, were not thick enough, did not have the most desireable feet and leg set, were too big, were not deep ribbed enough, did not have level toplines, were ugly headed, were muddy, were dirty, were too thin, were sick, had dehorning jobs that I botched, and/or that simply did not produce very well. Now if I posted the pic of one that WAS flawed, you would not be doing me any favors if you told me to take her to Denver. I think everybody has that cow who didn't look THAT bad when we were selecting which heifers to keep; that is either about to ride a cull truck or which makes us money despite of her phenotypical shortcomings. 99% of us do not have the best set of cows in our breed; but if we see an animal that IS flawed, I think we kind of have a duty to point it out.
