I got a load of ceder from a mill one time.  the only problem i had was the dust was so fine it really got into the hair and caused a rash on the skin......it wasn't the easiest stuff to blow out either... it smelt great and really absorbed.  just beware. 

I can tell you shaving cream works just as good as mousse on the body.  Holds really well and is cheap.

I've heard about using a donkey, but have never seen it done.  How do you attach them to the donkey?  How long do you leave them there? 

He is weighing approx. 950 and my son is 16.  We've had several steers and pretty good success.  Just never one like this.

There is a company called farm tek that sales a variety of ag products including fans.  you may want to price them out.  we have them in our barn.  they are water resistant and are designed for outdoor use in barns.

My son has a steer that is impossible.  We cannot make him walk.  He locks up on all four feet.  He is not mean.  He's been clipped and blown on etc.  When you do get him to move a few steps he wants to put his head down and take off.  Does anyone have any suggestions?
