Really like her looks. I would have guessed she was along those bloodlines. We have a February bull by trust that makes me think of her.

So my girl will be a senior next year so we've had some pro pics taken and wanted to share. A couple with our February bull calf

Its been a while since I've posted. I always saw people talk about how good it felt to win with their own animals. Well this year my daughter has gone from fair to great with her heifer. Most of the heifers she's ever shown have been her homegrown animals. After five years of breeding up she...

We've never shown there. How big of a show is it? How does it compare to the jackpot shows in the area?

CAB thanks for the further look. As usual I jumped the gun and worried to soon. It seems that it was as the post stated and he was not quite ready. I noticed him this last week and not an issue. Just like me to jump the gun and worry unnecessarily. Thanks again for the help.

I guess the question I have is did you or your child get any buyers to contribute to your auction? It may not be the case with your situation but parents or students are clearly told up front you don't bring a buyer you don't get auction money. There is a clear seperation of show and auction...

I am quite sure that my daughter showed a heifer at the same show you are talking about. If so yes there are well known names that show here. That being said I watched all of the steer show and a better part Of the heifer show. The show itself I didn't feel was to bad of a popularity contest...

Reed enterprise showed to carry it as well. Same price 25/straw

What age does it become a concern? 12 months+?

We have a pushing 10 month old bull. He has been trying to mount some of our cows which is not my concern. My concern is I have never noticed his penis come out of his sheath. There's no swelling or apparent injury or discomfort that I can tell. Is this a problem and if so what might it be? I've...

I have seen the judge make the exhibitors trade to someone else's animal. I can see the plus of this but I have heard grumbling because the kid got a animal that was not very show ring ready. Believing that showmanship goes in practice leading up to as well as in the ring. I've also seen a judge...

Updated pics and question added to original post

I already thought of that but that will be the easy clean up. She drinks a lot of water compared to our others and pees like a race horse. That will take a big mop and bucket.

It's all new to me but there's nothing holy about our cow. They're supposed to have some kind of ceremony then walk the cow through. Hope they have good cleaning supply's is all I'm thinking.

Just got forwarded an email. The email is from an Indian family who just bought a new home. They are wanting to rent a cow to walk through their new home before they move in. In their heritage it is considered good luck. If nothing else it might be an interesting endeavor. Just found it funny...
