Anyone else showing their steers from the catch-a-calf contest in Denver this upcoming January? I'm excited. I got a big boy on my hands. Just needs a butt.
Hope I'm not gonna be a loner out there.

Ok. We weighed my steer that isn't eating very good today. He weighed about 950. Last time we weighed him was July 28th. He weighed 925. So he is roughly gaining a pound a day, which isn't good at all.
That being said, State Fair is out. But the NILE show in Billings is in October. He needs to...
I purchased a nice blue roan April steer at the Arizonal Nationals held in December. He weighed about 650 in late-January at our county weigh-in. He is under coolers and fans all day.
The feed he is on right now is Show Chow Finishing Touch. He gets about 6 pounds of this twice a day with...

Would anyone be willing enough to share their show ration with me? I'm thinking about feeding Show Chow, but I am seeing if there is anything less expensive first. If anyone could help me out, I'd really appreciate it. Thanks. ;D
Does anybody know of any good hoof trimmers in CO? I have a roan steer that toes out quite a bit in the front and was just wondering if there was anyone who could help this out a little. Thanks.
This year, I'm gonna try to talk my dad into building a cool room for the steers, as long as I help and pay for most of it.
We had a 3 stall lean-to that is made out of cement slabs. The roof is metal or tin. We are probably just gonna totally enclose one and somehow insulate the walls then...
