Thank you!!! I have really been working hard with him! When I got him I knew it was going to be a lot of work since he has structure problems but I have learned to "show that out of him". I will let you know how I do at the show come Feb.  ;D

Thanks I've been busting my butt with him!  ;D

http://www.steerplanet.com/bb/index.php?topic=21775.0 ^ this is the link to the pictures I posted of him a few months ago.

I'm putting 4 1/2 parts barley and 4 parts steam rolled corn to his 12 lbs of feed bi-daily. I'm increasing my barley and corn by 1/2 a part every week. Plus I am feeding SureChamp vitaferm along with all that.

Yes it is the same calf that I posted awhile back.

I am raising this steer for our annual school district livestock show that shows on Feb. 3. We had a lottery draw for our calves. I was 37th to pick out of 44. When I got him he wieghed 755 lbs  now he  is weighing 1325 lbs as of December 29. Let me know what you think  ;D

yeah i think it is cause most of the animals we get dont even look like show animals. its easier with lambs and goats cause you can put them on a treadmill but with a steer or hog its pretty much what you get, how you feed and how feed it. last year i won grand with my lamb and had 2nd pick out...

we will see come show time!

haha thanks! and yeah I know everyone has their own opinions and each steer has their own flaws and it is a competition so I don't expect everyone to be nice about things.  ;D

i only leave his halter on when he is out to pasture. he is pretty square and has a really nice hip but pictures rarely do these animals justice unless they are posed.

Ok sorry  I wasnt on for a few days! but ok he is a "Chi/simmy" cross. Not angus not brangus. My dad wrote what the breeder said he was as "key/simmi" and I've only delt with hereford, brangus, angus and beefmaster. So I had no clue what in the world kinda breed that was. So excuse the incorrect...

our ag teachers dont know anything.

he's not brangus. none of the steers for our show are. they are commercial crosses. but i had a breeder look at mine and he is a simmy/key cross. nothing for our show has brangus in them we paid 1200 and something for them. we aint gettin a full blood brangus from a lot feeder for that price.

thanks i was hoping to get more people's opinions.

Hey I posted some pictures of my steer yesterday that were from when I first got him and these are some more recent ones. He is a "key/simmi" cross and is for a show in February. His current weight is 985. He is one of the smaller framed calves for the show and is pretty long and breaks in the...

hey does anyone know any good free online judging site for steers? or just livestock in general? Thanks!

Well I show in February and he is one of the smaller framed calves for the show. I will take some better pictures of me setting him up and upload them later.

Hey this is my steer and I'm just wanting some honest opinions about him. Thanks!
