[QUOTE="Rydero, post: 1663054, member: 38101"] I've been pleasantly surprised how the engagement level changed when my teenage girls each "bought" an animal. They always had to come help with cattle but now they just look at them differently, pick out animals they like etc. We structured it so they bought them at fair market value. I finance them so it's so much a year for the animal (3 years), feed at fmv, pasture fmv, anything else is on the house. They also did a few bottle feeders the summer before (extra twin from me and a couple from my boss), had them track the milk replacer so they had a little lump of money to put towards the animals they bought.
