Watch this informative video for washing and clipping details! Enjoy!

This video is overall a very informative. It goes into great detail to show you the amount of time preparing a show calf for a show can really take. This work does not just start a week before the show, it starts months before. This video puts into perspective this entire blog and really shows the depth of taking care of a show calf. Now I do realize there are many things it did not cover such as feed, halter breaking, and fitting, but it does go over, washing, drying properly, setting them up, as well as clipping. I really enjoy how the video follows the narrators voice as the boy in the video is showing you exactly what the narrator is saying. It helps you understand and see what a difference these tips can make for your show calf. I also like how this video goes into depth on why we clip the certain areas on a calf and how every calf is different. Lastly, it is a short video that does not take up much time at all and can really benefit you in the end. 

An article by Nathan Bushman called Preparing Your Show Calf  is another informative article that will even tell you how to take care of your show calf in the winter as well as go into great detail about fitting your calf. He also explains in his article how loading and unloading your calf from the trailer once or twice a month can be very beneficial for them to learn how to jump in and out of the trailer. If you put the article, and the video together and watch and read them carefully, then try it at home, your calf will look like a champion on show day.
