Some of you may remember that we just bought my daughter her first steer for our fair next Labor Day weekend. Well yesterday we decided to go with some friends to a sale( Leo Bright Bros) and we ended up buying a heifer. She is by Bodacious and out of a Angus cow. We think she is a pretty nice heifer with some good depth to her body and a good udder plus she is attractive. The only thing I am not crazy about is her tail set. What do you guys think? How should I feed her? For now she is in with the steer and we tied them up when it was time for their grain. Until we get her gentled and easy to catch then thats the way it will be. Do you think she is worth showing at all? If so, at what level? These photos are not the best. We had just unloaded her and tied her up and I snapped them with my cell phone. Oh and we weighed her today and she weighed 640#'s.
Also a quick update on the steer. He weighed only 508#'s today. He is doing great though. Such a sweet boy and so gentle natured.
