    Steer Feed Questions

    At a few of the jackpot shows that I attended, some of the judges said that my steer was too green and lacked rib width. I was hoping that with time he would develop and get wider.

    That makes sense but I have a one more question, wouldn't he have gone off feed immediately after the show instead of 4 days later?

    Keeping calves healthy at shows

    I took both of my steers up to Heart of it All in Lima, Ohio over the weekend. We arrived Saturday and got home Sunday night.

    Show Barn Lights

    My barn has very poor lighting so I had some spotlights installed last year which help but not enough when I'm grooming late at night. So I'm wondering what lights yall use in your barns and if any of you have any recommendations for lights to get installed in mine? I'm a college student so I...

    What do you think about this steer?

    Alright, so this is my first time posting on this site and it's also my first time buying a steer. I just want some more opinions on this steer that I've picked out before I close the deal. I've attached 4 pictures (hopefully they work) of the steer that I like, so just tell me if you like him...
