    Cow treats

    Okay, this has probably been asked a hundred times, but... is it okay to give my show cattle marshmallows as treats?

    Age

    I recently bought a steer, born Sept. 30th of 2016. We got to thinking though, about possible rules about the age that they have to be to hit the show circuit. We would love to show him in the 2017 year in Kentucky. Is there a rule against this?

    Please Help!!

    Hi, I recently got a new calf, she is eight months old, and she is built very well. Sadly though, she comes with a huge problem. The calf likes to test me by pawing the ground and running at me a few steps. I feed her twice a day, and she only goes to the feed if I'm completely across or out of...
