Judging

V's 4-H/FFA livestock group came to the farm today to practice judging on our 4 show steers. There are not too many opportunities around here to judge 4 halter broke finished steers and to be able to handle them to determine fat cover.
The steers behaved well. It should be good for them to get use to being handled before the show. By the way, V had a stockman's contest last weekend. She placed 10th overall (the only one on the team to place in the top 10) and the team was 4th high. She thinks there were about 17 teams and 70 individuals.
16k seems to be doing better so we turned her back out yesterday. We all enjoyed the beautiful day today, sunny, blue sky, temps in the 70's.
