UDDER SCORES
Udder scores have been used to cull and select cattle at Leland Red Angus and Koester Red Angus for many years. Scores are taken within 12 hours of calving by the same person to insure consistency. Scores less than 5 are considered unacceptable, and those individuals are not kept in our herds. We include the dam’s udder scores for Suspension and Teat Size following her MPPA in each bull’s data block.
FOOT SCORES
Our cow herds are all individually scored for foot quality. Any cow that fails to meet a desired score is disposed of with one exception: Occasionally, a good producer who falls out on foot or udder quality can be utilized as a recip cow for ET.
