[QUOTE="dun, post: 59548, member: 34"] This is the first time I've looked at this forum, I'm bored so thought I'ld give it a look. Your question about the difference between pasture and show ring quality pretty much hits the whole subject on the head. As long as a cow/heifer is functionally correct, i.e. feet/legs, body structure, etc. I see very little resemblence between real world cows and show ring animals. I did fall for a lovely face and bought a reserve champion heifer this past year. She's a nice heifer, but the more time she spends in the pasture working for a living, she's due to calf in the next week or so, the less she fits in with the rest of the cows. Pretty is as pretty does, hopfully she will be up to the task (and end up beautiful). If not she'll be fired, just like any other under achieving employee. dun [/QUOTE]
