I was in FFA in high school in the early seventies on the dairy judging team. We won the Florida state championship two years in a row. I have good memories of those days. Watching this channel brings back those memories. We have a few Guernseys we milk and make cheese and butter. We also sell raw milk through a herd share agreement. I’m waiting on customers to show up as I write this. It’s fun to see the little guy enjoy working with you. Well done!

I hope the kids working with the heifers will create memories they'll remember for a long time as well!

Do all the 4-H kids show same age calves? When we were breeding and had kids in 4-H they started with a "Novice Calf" born after March 1. And as the kids got older they showed different aged calves. Usually a "Winter Calf" then Fall calf as they "graduated" to showing junior and Senior yearlings.

The age range of Calf varies from about 2.5 months to 13 months this year.
