Speaking of inhumane I think the ADG requirement for state and county shows should be eliminated.
Ok Im gonna jump in here- I know alot of you are not from Iowa and I for one dont approve of airing cattle, but if you walk down the aisle at the Iowa Beef Expoor the Iowa State Fair you would run out of toes and fingers counting which ones have been aired. Unfortunately its pretty common practice here in Iowa I know ofat least three very big steer jocks that commonly air their cattle. I know alot of people out there wont admit it but believe you me here in Iowa its done, I dont think the young guys do it as much as the established big money ones do. The young guys dont know how to do it or are scared. Just remember if a steer you paid big money for in Iowa looks different a couple of weeks after you get him home he probably has been aired. Why do you think so many of them disappear with kinda big butts and appear with Really big butts.
this is how we air our cattle: open all the barn doors & let the wind take care of the rest! Red
