Commercial Heifer Question

[cattleshowgirl14]

So i bought this heifer October 2014 with the intentions of her being a market heifer well she missed making weight for my county fair by 25lbs (which im going to contribute to the fact she was in heat and the stress of travel) which meant i could not put her through the auction but we did win champion feeder for beef. long story short i found a buyer for her and they backed out on me last min well i found a new buyer and they arent coming to pick her up till march so im taking her to one last jackpot we have here next weekend. Shes going to have to be in a commercial heifer class because she is not bred yet and is not registered. I just wanted opinions on how you think shes going to do with the commercial heifers because ive only shown steers and market heifers ive never done anything in the commercial side of things.

shes a MAB x Hairy Bear

take for granted shes not clipped and not clean because shes been in the pasture for almost a month.

thanks for the help!

I really like her. Square, good hipped, big boned. She still looks fairly angular in her design which is ideal in a breeding heifer ring. If she's sound I'd say you could be pretty competitive. May even do better than you would have in the market heifers.

Shes about as sound as they come! Next weekend im taking her to show at jackpot we went to last year but i showed her as a market heifer then and they said she looked to much like a steer....just hoping we do better next weekend with the commercial heifers since it's her last show and my last time showing!

Thanks for the comments i appericate it!
