This is a January 24 angus heifer we raised out of TC Total. I was just wondering what you guys thought. I should have got some different profile shots but it was right before chore time and she wanted to eat. She's exceptionally thick all the way from front to back.

i think she looks leathery.  nice length, people will probably want a longer neck on her, ie rocket or goose fronted.  toes seem to be going the right way, seems soft in her pasterns, i've seen a lot of angus show cattle lately who are NOT.  to me, she looks a little like two animals.  i like her rear half better than her front half.  how does she track, evenly from side to side front to back?

Her front end is her biggest fault as far as not feminine enough. I would call her too tanky fronted but as a cow she's gonna get it done very well. She gets out and moves just fine. I've wanted to clean up her front and stretch her neck out but I think she'll do OK county level.

There are lots of gooseneck bulls you could bred her to if she has enough frame.  So thick and easy fleshing.  Would make a great cow.
