I have a 3 yr old Golden Child heifer who had a 77# heifer calf last month out of a purebred angus bull. In my opinion she is structurally sound, wide, thick, hairy, and has plenty of bone. She lacks depth of rib, although she is long, so she looks like a bratwurst. What would you suggest I breed her to? Calving ease is still important in my opinion, we needed to assist her with her 77# calf this year. Neighbors have snidely commented “you bred her with that small of a pelvis?”. She took right to her calf and the calf looks pretty darn good IMO. My wife and daughter (her calf) were able to witness their first calf born in their lifetime so it was pretty cool. I do not know if the cow is a TH carrier or not. Any help would be appreciated. Thank you.
