Spring Show 2011

The Michigan spring show is coming up and we started getting ready. So far we have washed 6 of the cows that we are taking (I believe that we are taking 10 or 11). We also brought one of our cows home to try to slim her down and milk her on our own. If you're confused here is why. We own a "hobby farm" so we just raise our animals and don't milk them. So back to the show. We have been tying up all our animals to get them broke to lead. We've also been leading them around to practice for showmanship and to get them to lead.

My dad is actually milking the cow right now and I just got done feeding. We also raise chickens but we haven't grown any meat chickens in a while, but we have gotten a lot of eggs. So thats what is new on our farm and I can't wait for the spring show.
