calving. Her dam is Classy Lady 42T, who was awarded supreme champion female in 2012 at both Old Home
Week and Nova Scotia Provincial Exhibition. 6A is the full sibling to the bull calf show alongside 42T, who was
Champion Bull Calf at 2012 Expo Boeuf in Victoriaville, QC. 42T is a favorite of ours: she’s an easy keeping,
broody female that milks heavily and is a pleasure to work around. We believe 6A has a lot of potential and are
confident that she will be a productive and eye appealing cow. We are fortunate to have four calves coming from
42T in 2015, so we are able to part with this heifer and make our first consignment to the Angus in Action Sale a
good one.
