It is the time of year when I pick out my potential show heifers and get them halter broke, or at least partially broke before they get turned out with the bull to get bred.
This is Red South Border Julia 41Y, a heifer I bought in a dispersal sale last fall and one of my favorites this spring.
The quickest way to a heifer's heart is with a good scratch by the tail head with a show stick!
This is Red Triple Play Lassie 5Y taking the halter breaking thing all in stride!
A couple more sessions and they should be standing nice and quiet while tied up and maybe even leading if I am lucky. They will get turned out with the bull in a couple weeks before coming back in to get ready for the summer shows.
