    Clipping Question

    Are their any websites that show pics of a good clip job up close?  Is their anything that you can put on a calf before clipping to make the hair stand out? How long should the hair on the side of a calf be trimmed down too.  Thanks need to refine my skills.

    Show in Market Heifer class or Crossbreed class?

    She has been shown before but just not by us.  She has done alright, but I feel that in a class of January calves she will be much smaller and most of the time the bigger heifers will get put ahead of her.  She is not going to be a big cow because of genetics but that always looks as if the...
