"The Rosebuds"
From the Rhythmic Riki Family
The Rhythmic Riki cow family is my favorite cow family of the Brown Swiss Breed; more specifically the Rosebud branch of this family. The Rosebuds hold a special place in my heart as they were the first cow family I bought into when I purchased Jo-Dee Victor Radiant. The Rosebuds are triple threats; they win shows, fill the bulk tank, and reproduce! They simply do not miss a beat! Scroll down to see the family tree and find out more about the Rosebuds that call Richardson Gentics home.

Rosebud was an anchor for the Jo-Dee Swiss show string for many years. Her son Richard is one of the top bulls available in AI. When her Glenn daughter, Rosette, was offered in the Kash-In on Valentines Day Sale, I knew it might be the only chance to own a direct daughter. What a thrill it was to purchase Rosette! Check her out below along with her sister Risky who I've been able to IVF.
