The Fair is Over!

From L-R: Yoko, Cleveland Williamson, Yellow Jacket, Gena Ussery, X-Man, Eugene Ussery

We always enjoy taking animals to the fair, but like the other exhibitors we are glad when we get home. As we mentioned on Facebook earlier (Red, White & Blue! Ussery Beefalo brought home one 3rd place, one 2nd place and TWO 1st places from the National Beefalo Show.We had a great time at the Ozark Empire Fair! -Pictures and commentary to come...) each of our four animals recieved a ribbon and we are happy about that!
Our bull, X-Man, never made it home as we transferred him to his new owner, Mark Cox. Mark has been a cattle judge and exhibitor in the past so we might see X-Man, or some of his off-spring at the fair in the future.
It will soon be weaning time time for our February calves and we will be selecting our entries for the 2011 Fall Farm Fest at he Ozark Empire Fairgrounds from that group. The days for the Farm Fest this year will be October 7th-9th, 2011. Remember: No admission or parking fees! We hope you can come!
