[QUOTE="greybeard, post: 1839035, member: 18945"] One of our FFA Ag class 'field trips' involved a[B] big[/B] pen of weaned pigs that needed vaccinated and our job was to catch them, pick 'em up by their rear legs and hold them over the pipe fence for the vet to stick. We wuz dirty, wet, and had pig crap all over us and stunk just like a pig when we got back to school for end of last period ag class. A 'difficult' ride home on the crowded school bus that day... and momma made me hose off outside when I got home. We did a lot of other field trip work, like barbed wire fence work, some calf castration (knife and burdizzo...remember, this was the 1960s) learned out on a farm about running a small PTO driven feedmill, used a freeze brander for the 1st time in my life, built/welded new pipe stalls at the livestock fair grounds and a bunch of other stuff I've forgotten.
