Does she look any better?

She looks better. Why was she so skinny??

Not a great udder, though, sorry. Doesnt look too hard to milk, though!

I love her pattern!

Actually I like her mammary very much. May be slightly lopsided, but that could just be the picture. Looks very milkable, teats a little to the side but not badly and nice high rear. Hard to tell from the pics but the fore looks pretty smooth too.
Definately more meat on her bones. Good job.
