PaFFA Proud said:I was just asking HOW do u fit an animal with just soap and water, not whining. I am glad we dont have the artificial stuff, because I seen the price of the stuff and imo to put it in and wash it out is a waste. Also our county has no idea what is really going on(they didnt know how we should clip and show our dairy beef class and they used dairy judges that actually
said they didnt know how to judge the dairy beef) so we have no one to teach us how to fit. I personally think stuff should be kept at levels, i hate that people win with animals that for example the grand and reserve champ lambs were bought at 400 each agianst max 100 lambs. It just gets me that they say our fair helps youth enter the industry which is right now is fitting their cattle. I dont have a load of money, I work hard for my animals and support my 2 girls along with my husband.....some people like going out to movies and parties........well I like showing animals and find it very rewarding. And for the person that posted all my posts are whining 1) I havent posted that many and none r complaining 2) I am just asking for advice seeing that I am new to this steer showing and all. Also I didnt know there was a different classes for fitted steers and a term blow and go which our show is I found out till now...I thought it was all the same. Thank-you everyone for suggestions and advice <beer>
