BROWN SWISS — D C B A
In an exceptional group of Brown Swiss cows, D places over C as she exhibits more strength and power throughout. Furthermore, D displays more spring and pop to her rib. I also prefer her width through the midsection of the rear udder, levelness of the udder floor, and overall veination in her rear udder. However, I grant C is cleaner and flatter in the hock and wider in her pin setting.
In an easy placing, C goes over B as she has more overall dairy quality and cleanliness. I also prefer her height and width at the top of the rear udder and the smoothness of her fore udder attachment. C also exhibits a deeper, more angular rib structure. I grant B does carry more strength throughout.
In my final placing, B goes over A as she shows more dairy strength throughout her frame. I also prefer the height and width at the top of her rear udder. In addition, B is wider through the rump and is neater and straighter in the tail setting. Although a silky hided, stylish cow, A finds herself in the fourth position as she lacks height and width at the top of her rear udder to place any higher in this awesome class of Brown Swiss cows.
