[QUOTE="Jeanne - Simme Valley, post: 669132, member: 968"] You would have more responses on the show board. Breeding females/bulls need to be registered. Youth can show commercial cattle at youth shows. Basics: Must be structurally sound, well muscled, lots of volume, put together in a smooth package. Unacceptable traits: pinched behind shoulders (heart girth), roach back, loin dips in front of hips, gutless, shallow in flank. Conformation for a show is the same (or should be) as any animal you want to keep as a breeder. You start at the feet and work your way up. Needs to exhibit breed and sex characteristics. Bulls should be well endowed and females should look like a female - not a steer. Check out the show board. Lots of info. Showing is a lot of work. Halter break, clipping, hair training. Lots of grooming products & gimmicks. If you do your homework at home, shouldn't need to do much to them at a show. We "blow & show" using very little if any adhesive. [/QUOTE]
