Reg:  I-288126

Weight:  1059 lbs

Horns (T2T):  67"

As of: 9/23/24

     Our first calf; named after Amelia Earhart.  We jokingly refer to her as our big "dog" because she's often found toddling right alongside us when doing our farm chores.  She's inquisitive, will walk up to say hi, and plop her chin on your chest for a neck rub.  When it comes to the herd, she loves trying to take her place as the boss cow and isn't afraid to challenge anyone.  She'll even get a little rowdy and will try to push our bull, Abe, around from time to time.  He'll let her think she's in charge for a couple minutes before putting her in her place.  It's fun to watch!

    She has great conformation and has put on weight pretty quickly.  While her horns started growing more vertically than we would have liked, they're starting to pick up a nice aft-rolling twist (like her mama).  At the 2023 ORVTLA show she won her class and was the Reserve Champion Senior Heifer.
