They're both pretty heifers. The first one appears to be more complete & fault free, particularly on that hind leg. I like the length of body in the second heifer; she seems to have some extra set to her hock, and that may just be how she's standing in the picture. The first heifer balances up better to me and appears to have more shape to her forerib and more depth to her flank.

Thanks for posting, and good luck with the heifers!

the brown on the legs of the second one really throws the visual balance of the heifer off.  one weighs 636, 2 weighs 630. 
anyone else have comments.  they are appreciated.

first one is out of a full white bull.  he is also the father to the sire of the second calf.

keep the first heifer, but if your looking to make some money I bet you would have now problem getting her sold.

I really like your top heifer..I'm not sure about the second heifer but think my judgement is swayed because of the way she is standing in the picture

like both heifers. I think the stance on the second one kind of affects the look a bit. Both nice females.
