Ridder Super Cows<br />
EPDs <strong>and</strong> level of performance are useful in selecting<br />
for a uniform <strong>and</strong> productive cow herd. But the<br />
“convenience traits” are critical:<br />

H Correct udders with short teats.<br />
H Red eyes <strong>and</strong> red bag pigment.<br />
H Fleshing ability <strong>and</strong> early calving.<br />
H Good disposition.<br />
H Dam of Distinction (DOD). Most of our purchased<br />
<strong>and</strong> raised herd sires are from DOD cows.<br />
