The picture shows the room when the calves are not in it. During the day when the calves are in there, we shut the back barn doors, and already have a tarp that hangs over the window on the outside.

You are spot on with that statement. We built the room and turned fans on via a seperate breaker, and on a 93 degree day the room stayed 76 with no AC. The fans are on a seperate braker than the AC and will run at all times. The AC runs on a breaker with nothing else on it but a radio. The radio...

It seems to be working pretty well. It basically runs the entire day (when the cales are in there) but i turn it up to like 75 and on energy saver cycle at night when nothing is in there.

Well, there have been several posts on here in the past asking about "homemade cool rooms", and I thought I would share ours. We just got it finished last week, and are still putting on some of the finishing touches. I am not a big believer in cranking coolers down to 40 degrees (but they do...

Hope this helps

Just a thought, but it sounds like you might be able to better market your trailer to horse owners.  (welcome)

I will be yet another reference for Linda and Cook Show Cattle. Awesome results and great turn around!!! What a catchy way to promote (clapping)

Take a sprayer and mix 1/3 diesel fuel and 2/3 water, spray it on the walls and watch the flies die. You can also mix it a little weaker if you have dogs that like to lick your barn walls like we do  (lol)

The Sullivan's Barn Fan is popular, but really did not hold up to our use. The Shaeffers are good fans, but the cages could use some more strength. We love our Hartkools, but good electric is a must to run more than one or two of them.

BUMP

I just sent Janey an email donating some pretty cool prints to the cause. I sure hope this gets as much publicity as possible. What a great way to help a family in need. Let's all pull together and make this worth while for this family, and show them how helpful it is to have an "extended cattle...

I like the idea of the slideshow. I would include some sort of catchy song in with it, just to spice it up a bit. Maybe make the slideshow the full length of a song, if people are listening to a good tune, they will be less likely to click off of it. Also, if you let the song play all the way...

If you have them hemmed(sp?) on the top and the bottom, you can run a wire through both and the wire on the bottom will reduce blowing around.

Nice calves in the classifieds section. Would you happen to have a website???

I just checked out the site. It looks to be pretty cool. It includes some areas for all of the major show species, even has some goat sutff for FARWEST ;) I also saw this poem on there, and thought it might make for good reading on here... I Show..... ...and I am the definition of dedication...

Here's ours. You'll have to excuse the fact that we ran out of time to do some much needed weed trimming (lol)

I just got some  key chain samples back from COOKSHOWCATTLE.COM, and they are flat awesome. I am going to be using some of their small ear tag key chains as promotional items for my photography and promotion business. These things are inexpensive and a great, unique way to advertise. Linda has...
