Okay I am planning on showing a steer, my first, he will be a Black Baldie or Hereford. I will get him around April. Since I live in Texas the weather gets real hot. Someone told me I had to rinse and brush him everyday and keep atleast 2 fans on him all time. During the summer put a mister on him. All that makes sense since you want the hair to grow. What doesn't make sense to me is why you want long hair on a steer? Since you aren't using him for breeding just strictly meat why does it matter what his hair looks like? If the answer to that is to cover up faults. Maybe make him "pop" more or to make him appear deeper sided. Isn't that false advertising??? I was just wondering.
