'I found the Paxton daughters to be consistent in conformation being tall and nicely balanced for strength and dairyness but not extreme for either. They certainly look like the kind of cows that can stay around for a number of lactations with the gentle slope to their rumps and correct feet and legs. The udders seem to have very good quality and the dairy producers I've talked to are very pleased with them.
