Steer numbers seemed to be way down. Is it just the economy? Or something else?

 

[kanshow]

Sheep numbers seemed to be way up this year, I think the pig numbers were up as well.  I cant' say about the cattle..  but seems like he clicked thru the heifers a lot faster (or were there fewer?) than last year. 

ALSO..  Big thanks to BCCC for dropping by and manning the blower for us!! (clapping) (clapping) (clapping)

Heifer show took around 3 pm just like last year. Was told (not confirmed) that steer numbers were half of what they were in 2009.

 

[kanshow]

Seemed to me like there was a lot less cattle in the barn because that one whole row was empty. 

 

[Torch]

There were a lot fewer Hereford heifers this year. Seemed about the same number of heifers as the year before otherwise.

Wasn't that a nice Charolais heifer?

 

[BGF]

Who won the steer show?

 

[Steered]

Morgan Mobley Grand
Brady Jensen Reserve

Wasn't that a nice Charolais heifer?

That was a really nice Char heifer that was crowned supreme. But the one I was impressed with was the champion Red Angus heifer. What a solid truck of a female and walked so smooth. JMHO

 

[drl]

Who had that charolais heifer? How was she bred?

 

[RAShower]

Grady Dickerson (according to the KSF website). She was the real deal. I have seen that heifer at several shows and it has been fun to watch her come on.

 

[JRS]

There were actually more steers this year than 2008.  Couldn't find results from last year

 

[JRS]

Anyone know the sires and breeders of the champion steers?
