Tessa is a very attractive, moderate framed heifer that is well worth a long look. Tessa will be the first of our Virginia Journey 55L daughters to sell at auction, and we have been incredibly pleased with his progeny. Journey’s genetic makeup of Synergy x Radison has been extremely popular, and we have been very impressed with his balanced combination of calving ease and growth. Tessa represents the 5th generation of her cow family to walk here with her dam Tasha being a great-grand daughter of one of our foundation females, HEMR Tasha, that we selected from the Heimstra dispersal back in 2009. Tessa represents exactly what we strive to produce in our females: loads of volume and capacity, while still retaining neck extension and femininity, all wrapped up in one very compelling package.
