[QUOTE="spinandslide, post: 590134, member: 5559"] Just having them do the "work" involved in it would be good enough IMO... My son is 8, to young to really "do" anything project wise in 4-h with his calf, but he feeds her and cleans out her pen in the evenings. I bought the calf for him, because I wanted him to develop a love of cows and understanding how to raise a healthy, productive animal. Good time spent together too. :) When they get older, you can "charge" them stuff..when I was a teenager, my mother started gradually taking away what she helped me with my horse..so it forced me to start looking for a PT job to pay for the horse's upkeep and by the time I was graduated, I was paying for everything myself.
