Matteson entered the Commercial Heifer Contest because he felt like this was a great opportunity to get his Grandpa, a commercial heifer rancher, more involved in his FFA project.

Tagging and loading the heifers is a lot more challenging because they are not halter broke and you must try to guide them in the right direction. The Commercial Heifer Contest has also helped me improve on time management skill because it is not the only divi-sion I entered in the 2019 NCJLS.

Exhibitor Name: Colby Skoruppa Grade: 8th

Club/Chapter: Chaparral 4-H School: Tuloso Midway Middle School

Colby entered the Commercial Heifer Division because he had thought about raising a market steer, and thought this would be a good start. He believed he could learn a lot from this project to possibly use in a future pro-ject or cattle in general. Colby learned that it takes patience and time to get results from any live-stock projects. The heifers grew up differently. They went through a growth spurt and grew taller when they had been shorter and more filled out. So with more time he believes they would have grown and filled out much dif-ferently. He loves to go hunting and fishing and ride his dirt bike. Colby is also show-ing a market swine in the show this year.
