Is this cross would make a good family cow?

Isn't this fun!? Farmerboy, we're kinda like heifer twins! Is this your first time having a milk cow? If it is, although your girl has more white, we are both waiting for calves and have cute dairy crosses for our little farms! I really love your girls star on her fore head, so cute. Do you have any idea of her due date? I probably have pics of Kjersten's udder ever other week, we could compare! lol! (I've been a little excited) Very sweet girl you have there, good luck!

Yes, its fun, but I have no idea when is the due date, and the former owners did not know the date too for they had brought her from someone else already bred, and is not sure what bull had bred her. Its either a lowline Angus, or a standard Angus. So, its a wait and see game. Bella is our very first cow, so we are quite new in this. I will take a few picture of her udder today.
I found your thread Kelsey, and I am excited for you! Your heifer looks like that she is closer to deliver than Bella. I have subscribed to your thread.

Question- If she have a heifer, the heifer will be kept for another family cow, but if the father is a Lowline, would she be too small to be bred to a Guernsey Bull? My dad wants Bella bred to the Guernsey bull when she is ready to have another calf.

Here are the pictures of her udder.

Her ''girly parts''

Left side

Back side, she does have 2 extra teats, and I know that they will never function.

Right side, See that small round mark in the middle of her udder? That is a scar from jumping out of the trailer when she got here.

Top side, showing her round sides

Left side, showing big belly.

Front- Asking me if I was done taking pictures of her privy.

You've got a while before she calves.

Her face tickles me in that last pic.............She is like "honestly. how UNDIGNIFIED!" lol

It looks like she is very tired of her photo shoot...

Bella liked going to the woods today. The 5 months old steers had showed her where to go.

 

[redtailgal]

Well now, you've got a nice lookin' little herd started!

Congratulations!
