I've bought into the fact that at least with cows she can show them more than one season & since (so far) we've just had heifers they are "money makers." We never had any luck breeding pigs, so it became expensive bacon. Very good expensive bacon! Most of the people around her have hogs, my inlaws breed show pigs & have had great luck with them.
She just had her first 2 babies, both heifer calves (Charlie & Nori). I keep trying to get her to have Lost names. Since we have a Smokey, a Charlotte & a Charlie, I guess I'll take it!
She is so die hard FFA now it's crazy. Besides showing, now she's really getting into judging (my husband went to college on a judging scholarship, so it's right up his alley). It's all a foreign language to me! Just tell me where to be, when to be there & I'll make sure her clothes are clean & pressed & there are snacks!
