Hi there! I am Ireland Somers, and this is my heifer Teal. She is a purebred, Simmental heifer, and let me tell you she is pretty darn nice to look at. I am very excited to show her at the show and to keep her for more years to come in to see what she brings to this world. I’ve been showing these animals for around 10 years, and it just never gets old. Teal is one great gal! Although she does like to take control of the barn and she likes to eat a lot of green. She is one pretty heifer. Teal and I are really looking forward to seeing you all at the heifer show! And I’m sure you recognize this pretty lady, Lavender. Lavender as you know is my two-year-old project this year. Lavender is probably my favourite animal. She is a purebred Simmental, and she is papered!! I have shown her last year and she does have some attitude to her. She is one great gal. Plus, I also won. Overall Grand Champion Yearling Heifer with her last year. I am so excited to show her and her amazing calf at the show this year and to see what awards they might bring. Hopefully this time she doesn’t have a big attitude, but I guess with a heifer you’ll never know. Lavender and I would like to invite you to join us at the female show this year on May 28 and we are looking forward to seeing you there! And I’m sure you may also recognize this beautiful hunk of a cow Candy Kane. Candy Kane is a purebred Simmental cow, and she is a pretty darn nice one. Although she is my three year old cow/calf project, It is kind of sad that I’ve spent most of my time with her and this is her last year in my whole herd for 4-H but I am hoping that she is going to go out with a bang! I’m really excited for the calf she’s gonna bring. She adds a little sparkle to my herd, and I really enjoyed that. She is a great mother every year. She is one of my favourite animals to show. Whenever I go outside, she is probably one of the easiest cows to pick out of the herd and talk to and give her a little pet here and there. I am so excited to show her at our show on May 28. Candy Kane and I hope to see you there!

Hi my name is Jayden Warren and this is my whole herd project. Here is my home raised fullblood Simmental heifer JBar Karma 21K, I showed her momma all through 4-H and I am super excited to see what I will be able to accomplish with her! She has lots riding on her and I feel she will fulfill the footsteps her dam has left on my herd and show career! This is my 2 year old pair and let me tell you Chipa is performing well in my herd with her January heifer at side that has been exceeding expectations since birth! I am very excited to see how big and fancy this little heifer will become show day! I know this is a female that will help improve my herd with the way her first calf is already looking! We would love if you came to take a look at the tremendous job Chipa is doing. This is a big broody female that will be my 3 year old pair this year Hellen raised an amazing bull calf last year as a first calf heifer and I am stoked to see what will come of her bull calf at side with her large frame and tremendous udder with lots of milk! Hellen is a cow that can raise calves with lots of power to add to your herd! This is her last year she will be showed and I'm excited to see what she will accomplish.
