 Cold weather will not hurt a cow so much as rain will. Cattle need a shelter they may enter whenever weather becomes too much for them. Such a shelter (like a barn or a simple shed) would provide enough cover. If they are able to be on pasture anytime they want then when they needed the protection of a barn they would go into it.

 a) Weight of the heifer, with the ideal between 900 and 1,250 pounds at weaning time. A cow that is too small will usually produce calves that do not grow as much. Larger cows require more maintenance and feed.
 b) Muscle distribution. Heifers should have smooth, even, moderately thick muscle distribution. Thick, bunchy muscling can be an indicator of light milk production.
 c) Fat distribution (finish) should be even.
 d) Structural soundness. Look at the feet and legs for any defects such as splay footing (hooves point out), knock knees and curled, small, or uneven toes. Legs should be straight when viewed from behind.
 e) Sex characteristics. Feminine traits should be evident including long, narrow necks, refined heads and smooth shoulders. Udders should be correctly sized, with small- to medium-sized teats.
