    Michigan Trip

    My family is going to Kalamazoo MI this April. We plan on going to the show at MSU on April 9. I was wondering if there is any farms around that area that would welcome vistors. Breed doesnt matter as long as its cattle.

    Fat steer

    What age does a fat steer need to be. I've never shown one before but was thinking about getting one ready for next year. Also in some of the rules I've noticed that the steer must still have the milk teeth. Could someone explain what milk teeth are and what age calves loose them.
