Need a good bull to clean up her sheath and add more depth. Her dam looks very rough and pinched not sure if I would call her as a quality cow.... otherwise the heifer is good as a commercial.

I don't know what you mean by the dam is rough?? I would like to see more depth on the dam as well and a little more on the heifer.

The dam is 3 1/2 in the pic

Pay no attention you be much wiser for it
. Very good advice.

I generally associate big barreled big capacity with grass type cattle with a big rumen to be more efficient on forage and the pencil gutted shallow cattle to be engineered for feed. It's not a hard and fast rule, but from an outside POV she'll work out if you like her.

That does make sense.

I thought it had something to do with the cows ability to hold condition better and the ability to reach larger carcass weights in the feedlot.

That is the result.

Heifers have a sheath ? Must be all this transgender stuff going on I guess.


I had a registered Gelbvieh cow with that little dewlap on her navel. Most of her sons had less than desirable sheaths, and I went out of my way to breed her to tight sheathed bulls.

Oh be nice to Muddy! He is a pretty smart guy! And I dont see you giving an opinion.
 
I personally like her. She will make nice calves for you. She has more naval than I would like to see but who cares. I would breed her to a bull that would add a little gut... Other than that I have nothing else to say...
