Since I cant reply on the Smoke Bomb thread I was going to say there is quite the conversation going on on breeders world 2nd page about the champion market heifer, I have to admit they look alot alike but dont care 1 way or the other just thought it was interesting.

With the looks of the throat and markings on front leg, it sure looks like the same to me. Good heifer though.mike said:

was the earlier show supposed to be terminal, or is ownership change the issue?

Ya, cause like nobody has ever switched tags before, duh! (clapping)
I don't know about Kearney, but u don't have to have a 4H tag in to show at the Iowa Beef Expo. It's just a jackpot show. You don't even have to be in 4H to show. Just under 21 and mail your entries from an Iowa address. I don't know for sure, but even if it is the same heifer no one has done anything wrong.

It looks to me that the roan color and the heifers necks are a little lighter on the Iowa one. Could be the picture though.

Put the pictures side by side and every spot matches up!

Check the pics folks -- look for obvious standout markings on the first, then go to the second.
At the very top of the withers is a small dark spot -- same inboth pics, along with the indent in the large spot on the shoulder, as WELL as the cannon bone spot on the lower right front leg. Also, look carefully at pic one of the right hind leg -- there are three rather obvious spots that work together -- exactly the SAME as the second pic.
Same hfr -- different girl -- end of story. The wrongs or rights??? -- well that is up to the show commitees and the owner(s). If she was sposed to be shown INSTATE as an owned hfr, doesn't that break at least one rule?? Not in the show ring any more of course, but right IS right -- correct??

I did not see anything on the other websight about this heifer. ALTHOUGH things do disappear frequently on that site.
Roans are pretty distinguishable. Rare that you find roans that match up as well as that one. Did they break the rules at one or the other? Is that the point you are trying to make? I guess I am trying to understand what the point of the post is if no rules have been broken. I have seen several competitors show different cattle at different shows. With it being a market animal I would not expect her to be registered. But if she was then you might have an issue, as it would be hard to get the papers back in a week.
