Be sure to see the Brahma show cattle. We did a few years ago, and they are awsome looking animals!
One, while we were visiting with the owner, obviously wanted to be scratched. From poll to ear tip was the length of my husbands' fingertip to elbow. Measured after returning home, that was sixteen and a half inches!!!
That was our first experience watching a goat show and visiting with a goat rancher. He said he had no pasture bills, and sometimes got paid for clearing the grass and weeds from business lots. It was a form of agriculture that worked for his family at that time, tho they were hoping to get into something more conventional on a bit of land of their own.
Too much to see and too little time made us wish we hadn't made other committments.
