[QUOTE="farmwife, post: 588918, member: 4247"] As the others have said, no one knows. As for illegal and unethical: The illegal issue can only be answered by reading the rules of the show. And too, the fact as to whether or not it was given by vet instructions or not (again refer to show rules). The unethical question often is a matter of opinion rather than rule. I tend to err on the side of if I have to wonder then it probably is unethical. We don't use calming drugs on our cattle; we don't pump them to add "spring of rib"; etc. Some folks do one or both and many others. Many folks will go as far as doing surgery on their animal to make them appear different. If we don't win with the natural animal, then we just don't win. To our family it's not about winning anyway; it's about spending quality time together. Sure it's fun to win, but it's not everything. [/QUOTE]
