My son showed his steer Friday night and placed 3rd overall. No I don't have pictures, forgot the camera.
Anyway, our "real" fair is 30 days from now. We weighed him last night and he is ....1425 and still not finished!!! We have added some corn to his ration. Our beef leader said he has 3 ribs he needs covered yet. He is a really big boy. He is really nice, and I hope there is a steer there who matches him well so he will have a shot at Grand or Reserve. What is everyone's experience with huge calves at your shows? This is only our second year in beef and we didn't have this problem the time before.
Thanks
