Cause they look like a perfect female every time they set foot in the ring. Here we're talking about fixing on a cow that was unfortunate enough to get foot rot. Although that may be a genetic pre disposal, it's probably not a highly heritable issue whereas actual bone structure issues are a very heritable problem and a major issue. If a little trimming can save a good cow and keep her cranking $900 calves, it might just be worth it in this market.
Well a bull spending time in a soft corral doesn't breed many cows on The Circle Y ranch.
Also when you trim animals feet twice a year how do you know your not masking inheritable foot problems?
Maybe show cattle are brought in at night so they don't get pastuerized? :lol:
