It could have been the mooing or the head butting from the goats, or even the state vet on his knees that gave us a clue that fair season, but more importantly, Livestock Show season is in full swing.
More than 20 folks came out to the Robeson Regional Agricultural Fairgrounds to take advantage of our free health certificates for 4-H members showing in this years livestock events.
Bruce Akers, got down on the ground and talked with the animals, listened with his stethoscope and put his hands in places the animals weren't too happy about (mainly their mouths and eyes) to make sure they were healthy and eligible for their health certificates. Michelle Shooter, Extension Livestock Agent, sat and helped fill in the blanks on the paperwork with the help of the animal families. Even Mercedes, a very gentle heifer belonging to Stephanie Carter, seemed to have an utterly mooving experience now that she is ready for show season.
We want to thank Bruce, all the parents, and 4-H members who came out and wish everyone the best of luck this show season. Can't wait to see you at the Robeson Regional Agricultrual Fair in a couple of weeks!
