First Show Steer (UPDATE)

The last week Ive been workin pretty hard with him please excuse the poor picture it was taken by a camera phone after I washed him and blew him out  for the morning

The fair is in 2 weeks  so Ill get some pics of him fited up later

Not too bad. I really like your pen setup!!!! Wish I had one that clean and organized.

you did a good job feeding him O0

He's dirty...

but he looks like a meat wagon, looks like he's finished good too  <beer>

yea those clumps are hard to work out but their comin out more everyday

any tips on removal?

Thanks for the complements

let them soak and brush em out  ???

You might try soaking with mineral oil to remover the crustys.  I have never tried it on a calf but I have used it on the feather of a shire mare.  Let it soak bush in, soak some more, brush some more, soak, then finally wash it all out together.  Be careful you don't take all the hair getting the mud off.  LF

I've always been able to get them out by just soaking them in water then taking a plastic wash brush and scrub gently...it may take a couple of times but they should come out fairly easily.
