[QUOTE="Double R Ranch, post: 668732, member: 411"] I was at the county fairs this year and was interested in hearing what the judges are looking for conformation wise. I know what I "like" in the look of a cow but was wondering what everyone here's opinions are of conformation of cattle. What is good/bad etc. We have some great steers (in my opinion) that I was thinking would be great for some kids that have been begging me to sell them steers. I just can't get an answer as to what is involved with 4h-ffa shows. Can anyone fill me in on what conformation is standard (I know all judges are different as well as all breeds) and if there are parents or kids on here can you tell me how you go about the whole process. From picking your animal (saw a heifer class to) to what you do in raising and caring and grooming. Also if anyone knows what classes are generally available. I have a really nice (IMO) heifer that I would love to have shown or show myself but I want to retain her so I am not sure if that is possible. Like at state fair or something to show the kind of stock we have now. Just want some info and opinions. Thanks! Double R [/QUOTE]
