Around here us girls use our scotch combs to put our hair up on show day.

What I like about showing calves is the satisfaction I get after I do well at a show or the fair. I just like to work with them and be with them. They calm me down when I'm stressed or have had a rough day.  I just love to be around them.

Thanks everyone for all of the advice. I will definitely try some of your ideas. It is greatly appreciated.

We've tried putting her in a pen with other calves that are calm, but she still acts the same when she is with them. We aren't able to comb her or scratch her with the showstick because she freaks out when we try to get near her to work with her. I am away at college so I am not able to work...

I need help. I have a shorthorn heifer that is psychotic. She freaks out if you even walk by the pen. We have been trying to get her broke for almost two months now and we can't seem to get her broke. We try to tie her up everyday and we left her tied up for all day one day, but when we went to...

Our Seniors get out June 5th and everyone else gets out June 15. I also graduate on June 13.

Its funny that I cam across this. I am planning on going to school at River Falls in the fall.

I'm sorry to hear about Reba. I don't think its childish to want to remember her. It just shows how much you really cared about her. If I was in that situation I would probably do the same thing.

Well I haven't heard anything wierd in an actual class but I have been asked an unusual question in showmanship. The judge asked the whole class what we named out calves. Now remember that this was a class full of 17 and 18 year olds. No one understood why he asked us what we named out calves. I...

My favorite christmas song is "A Baby Changes Everything" By Faith Hill. She just came out with it and it is so good. It is told from a 14 year old Mary's perspective.

ok. thanks so much.

My mom and I were looking at this and we thought it would be cool to get one of these shirts. We were wondering if there was a website that we could check out to order them or how we could purchase them. Could someone please let us know? Thanks!

My suggestion would be not to get a kodak, I have one and it is a piece of crap. My sister also had a kodak and it stopped working, we tried getting  a new battery and that didn't work either. So if  I were you I wouldn't get a kodak.

I have been showing cattle since the 4th grade so that would make it 9 years and i have been around cattle for 11 years.
