#1. Ease of calving. You would want to keep cows who have a history of being able to calve without help as opposed to those who always need help during calving.

#2. Size of calves and viability. You would want to keep cows that generally calve larger calves, as well as those who rarely loose calves due to small birth size or general weakness of newborn calves. Over time your herd will become generally more robust.
