    custom fitting fees

    It's been a few years since I have taken any "outside" cattle. Here is what I charges a few years ago - $10.00 a day per head at home plus feed. I also charged for halter breaking, hoof trimming, clipping, vet expences, etc. At the show I charged $50 a day per head plus feed except for show day...

    How long does your fair take to send you the check from the sale??

    At our county fair checks, the buyers pay the kids directly. Most are paid within a few days but I'm sure some wait longer. RW

    4-h leader

    We are chipping away at the good old boys on our fair board now. We have three left to go and we will have a pretty good board without alot of the good old boy politics on it (hopefully). RW

    lightning

    I have not used arrestors - in the last 35 years I have only lost one other fencer to lightning until this year. This year I can't remember going a full week without a thunderstorm rolling through, yesterday alone we had three seperate storms come through with thunder and lightning. I talked to...

    Highest form of Disrespect N/C

    Desicrating a grave should get you a year of hard labor per grave and a tattoo on your forehead that states DUMB*** in bold letters for all to see as well as sterilization so you don't reproduce your obviously inferior genes! RW

    Junior member won't let anything stop him from showing

    Clinton was featured in the "I am Angus" series a while back. I'm pretty good friends with his dad, it takes alot of patients for them to get to where they have gotten today. Good people with good cattle. RW

    New 4H leader

    If you can start before the kids select their calves, you can work with them step by step. Selection, feeding, halter breaking, daily care, show stick introduction, changing feed, clipping, fitting, showmanship, etc, etc. While the ages may vary quite a bit, it has been my experience to start at...

    Fitting

    I think that sometimes people lose sight of what a calf should look like while they are fitting. A truely "fit" calf will look impressive but still natural. RW
