Re: Flush Suggestions
The linear info, for stature +1.30.
His tallest dtr. is 64 in. at the shoulder, 2nd calf. She is taller than her Asrojet, unscored dam.
Thus stature is above average.I haven't seen any that aren't tall enough to score Excellent.

Re: Flush Suggestions
I think if you still wanted Storm you could still get it; otherwise if you want to go Storm use September Storm, I think he seems to sire them a lot like the old man only bigger.

I couldn't disagree more. Are you looking at the same cow as the rest of us are? She is a very nice cow I would say 86-88 points, I think you need to take another look.

Re: Flush Suggestions
I would go with top end of Indiesview, if not higher. Shilt- you will have to let us know how she scored.
Heres my suggestions and reasons.
To really lift that rear udder how about Blitz or Forbidden. These Emory sons will also put some front end strength in.
Blitz is interesting as he crosses back to Valiant and the best Integrities we have seen so far in the UK go back to Valiant bloodlines - Sara and Paradise(out of Broker)included!
Another pedigree choice would be BayBob Amateur - his greatest strengths are feet, legs and rear udders. Also he is 3 generations of Valiant from Aarons cow family but by another Valiant grandson from Integrity cow family. Just a hunch but his blood could match up well with your cow.
If all of these are too low on butterfat then maybe a Storm son would do the trick.
Best Storm son for Feet and legs we have is Cocherill- hes out of a Luke sister to Mtoto.

Re: Flush Suggestions
Touch and go whether this cow would make VG in the UK today. Would depend an awful lot on locomotion which can't be judged from a picture. If she walks well legs might be GP and she would get there, if she doesn't walk well then she don't make it.
Looks from the picture as though that fore rib area could also hold her back on chest width/body.

Re: Flush Suggestions
She went EX90 today, with an EX udder. Her locomotion is great, she just has a bit of set to her leg. The classifier loved her, and made her EX her first classification ever, which says something in itself. He also mentioned that he thinks she has a point or two in her yet. So much for that GP stuff, eh?
