[QUOTE="DLD, post: 1422455, member: 19707"] Great info Boot Jack and Jeanne - thanks for those posts. We had never shown a pair, but last fall my daughters Chi show heifer had a nice heifer calf (matching blue roans - too cute) and we thought we might try taking them to Tulsa, but in the end we chickened out. We did show them at a couple of shows locally - it was fun but it was a pain, too. The heifer had accidentally gotten bred a little early but it was our low birth weight bull so we let it go. She calved (unassisted) at 20 months and was an exceptional mother, but the calf would've only been a month old at Tulsa, and she would've likely been the only pair in the breed, almost certainly the only one in that class. That coupled with just dealing with a baby convinced us not to take them. It's certainly good to have this kind of advice should it come up again, though. [/QUOTE]
