[QUOTE="DLD, post: 1031332, member: 19707"] There are some new shedding combs out that work really well. We use the ones from Supreme Show Supply, but Sullivans has a very similar one. Slick shearing can work well, but I sure wouldn't do it this late in the game. Get a good shedding comb, and get all that dead hair out, and just keep rinsing and brushing. The cooler you can keep 'em the better, but the most important part there is at least keeping them out of direct sunlight, especially during the heat of the day. Also, there are number of supplements that do help with hair growth and quality as well, if you want to go that route. We've never used those on heifers, but I know Shag is available in a heifer formula that is supposed to have added nutrients for fertility. [/QUOTE]
