8 months old, out of 2nd calver, which has Angus, Limo, a little BB and dairy blood. Dam calved at 16 months age for the 1st time. This heifer is her 2nd calf. Parents don't think about leaving her as replacement, but I'll probably will ask them if I could keep this girl for myself. In height she isn't smaller than other similar age heifers, she is even taller than some, but she is quite light. But I love her character as she is very calm and friendly.
