I hate heifers.  If they can find a mudhole or snowbank to have trouble calving in at two in the morning they'll do it.  I agree with going with cows with a calf or two behind them.  I'd also be careful about buying single cows around calving season, they generally are cheaper that way but you don't know why they are being sold.  Could have not accepted her calf, maybe just healed up from a prolapse (yuck), bad milk, fence jumping SOB, or just got on somebody's last nerve for whatever reason. always had good luck with angus and hereford, but that was up north, not down here.
