Over-marked British White Cow & Heifer Calf Nursing

This is J.West's McQueenie, an American Fullblood British White cow, who happens to be over-marked, with an eye popping heifer at her side out of J.West's El Presidente, that is more than ready to be weaned at just over 7 months old. I am very glad that McQueenie is part of my herd, she is a fine mother with an abundance of milk, and has for the second time given me a mighty fine heifer.

McQueenie is the grand-daughter of HRH Bountiful, who is a Popeye daughter. McQueenie was sired by J.West's Bounder, who was a Woodbastwick Randolph Turpin (English bull) son out of HRH Bountiful. Her own dam, J.West's Bountiful 04, likewise over-marked, was sired by DFTX "Doc" Watson, my first herd bull.

@BeefFarmer1 Thanks for letting me know about the Riggit! I looked in to this and was very interested. See my blog on the Riggit Galloway at Britishwhitecattle.us.com for Feb. 2nd. For some reason I'm having problems posting a reply, so I'm excluding the full blog/web address to see if that is the problem. . .
