Reserve Grand Steer, Crooked Creek Classic in Meade, KS, shown by Harley Heatherman

We are a little late to the party but happiest of birthdays to Walker Eslinger!

Walker is the best herdsman, cattle feeder, fitter, tool locator and occasional kids’ banner hanger we could ever ask for! He will even drive the trailer (with all 3 kids) to a show if you bribe him with some ice cream. 😆 We owe you a lot, Walker!

Sold.

I have a 3 year old cow sired by In God We Trust, with a bull calf sired by Birddog, for sale. $6000. Just a little late calving. Text me at 7858211010 for a video. Too many pairs for grass. Video in comments

We took a break from showing this weekend for a very special graduation! We would like to wish Miss Haviland Perry a big CONGRATULATIONS for graduating high school today!

Havi has been with us for many years- she’s the champion power washer, pig whisperer and queen of the farrowing house in the summer! She keeps Dakota at least somewhat organized and is also the only reason we get to leave the farm, ever! Havi has had the joy of wrangling kids on some long road trips and we couldn’t be more thankful! She will be headed to Colby Community College this fall as part of their livestock judging team!

But, first, she gets to jump right into farrowing, and we couldn’t be more excited to have her back this summer!

In honor of the first jackpot weekend on the high plains, we are reminding you all to have a great show day! Feel free to read out loud if you like to embarrass your kiddos sometimes, like us! 🤪

Twas the Night Before the First Jackpot

Twas the night before the first jackpot when all through the house…
A mom was stirring, ironing every blouse.
The starched jeans were hung by the door with care.
In hopes that stains would soon not be there.

The children were all tucked in their beds.
While visions of hand-shakes danced in their heads.
With momma in her sweatshirt and dad in his cap, they had just barely laid down for a nap.

When out at the barn arose such a clatter,
I sprang from my bed to see what's a matter.
Away to the window I flew like a flash.
To see the trailer backed up in a dash.

The lights flipped on and it was time to show!
I really hoped my gilt would go with the flow.
When what to my eyes should appear, She hopped right on-had nothing to fear!

With my favorite driver whip, we'd be so quick.
I knew in that moment- we'd be the judges pick!

With our skills and drills- heads up- here we came!
The announcer would surely say my name.

We sprang into the pickup and gave dad only a small bristle...and away we flew like down of a thistle!
Full of hope as we drove out of sight, we say
"Happy Show Day to all! Please God- let my pig act right!!"

*A Reiss Livestock original- no Al involved.

Who is ready to roll for the show season? We are ready for the Colorado Junior Swine Association - CJSA first show of the year! I missed filming the 2 hrs of power washing on the other side, but rest assured the pigs are traveling clean and comfortably too! What’s your favorite trailer packing hack? I will share mine in the comments, but Type A (and type Bs!) people chime in! I’ll send the best hack a freshie for your trailer!
