[QUOTE="Rustler9, post: 664569, member: 440"] I'll have to be careful or get someone pissed off but I've seen Longhorn cows and heifers so fed up that they looked like they'd never breed. I've even heard the judges say that they would be concerned about the animal as to whether she'd ever be able to breed. Too much fat under the neck and tail head. Getting them so fat for the judge's sake and for the sake of trying to win and sacrificing the animal as far as I'm concerned. They aren't meant to be that fat, especially a Longhorn cow or heifer. It ruins the reproductive value of her. There's a farm here in Tennessee (yes, we have Longhorn shows in Tennesse too) that feed theirs up that way and shows them. They don't always do so well in the ring because of this. One of their big show cows looks like she hasn't calved in a few years. Probably can't conceive. [/QUOTE]
