Fair Heat. . .

[steerkid21]

While were at fair the calves abviously start to get hot coming out from the cooler . . . we have a fan and a mister on each calf but they still seem to be panting pretty hard . . . . any other ideas? Anything to keep them just a little cooler will help greatly!

The best thing would have been to start the week before your fair by gradually turning the temp up in your cooler to aclimate the calves to the warmer temp.    It sounds like you are already at the fair, so I would suggest rinsing often during the day with cool water, use cool collars and make sure you have plenty of space between calves.

You can put ice right into there anus and that can help cool them off.
