One Fine Acre - 2023 4H Steer Project Update

[OneFineAcre]

We are only taking 6 to Rowan County. They will be riding in the back of the Suburban.
2 still needed clipping as of this morning.

We really need to clip all of ours now for the State Fair end of October.
In the past we have always clipped for Mountain Fair the first week of Sept and then groom a little around the legs and head for State Fair.

When will they have time???

We show 3 other breeds and OFA has alot of Sr does he shows, we don't have a lot of srs. so that is where extra helpers can be there.

That is great you will have Rachel this time.

We still have 9 goats to clip. Hooves on all. 16 goats.

One set of clippers broke. All this to do with ONE set of clippers. Again..

I think Rachel has changed her mind

Uh oh. well at least you only have 6 going... that should be manageable... looks like someone will be showing goats! LOL

Cocoa gets her final leg!

So why am I up at 2am?
Winding down from my 2.5 hour drive home from the Rowan County Fair
Cocoa did not get that 3rd leg
When we brought the goats to the ring I knew it wasn't going to happen
There were 2 does that were just magnificent
A 4 year old and her 2 year old daughter
The 4 year old was GC in Ring 1 and the 2 year old in Ring 2
Clarabelle did win the Champion
Challenge for
Best of
Breed in Ring 2

But Cocoa's daughter Joy was Grand Champion Jr Doe and Best in Show in Ring 2
Any time you get a purple BIS rosette you had a good show

I guesss you can say this judge is consistent
2 years ago she picked Cocoa's daughter Shea who is Joy's full sister as BIS

And the last thing that I'm so happy about is that a One Fine Acre buck was the sire of the Grand Champion Jr Doe in Ring 1
That is the icing on the cake
But I'll let someone else tell
You about that

 

[OneFineAcre]

I've also never had a judge ask me for my contact information?
Her Grand daughter has Nigerians
