Is your steer by himself? If so I would get him a pen mate,If not another calf I have heard of horse people using goats to keep there stud horses calm. I have even seen them at the shows in the stalls. You could start giving him Melatonin in his feed way before you go to any show. I have found nothing works well if they are already aggitated. --Previous Message-- : Our steer is causing problems at the shows. He : walks well at home,but when you take him to : a show he is a bundle of nerves. He is out : of control. We were finally able to get him : to the show ring,but he would not settle : down. Anything new just throws him into a : tail spin. We are almost ready to give up : because we do not see much improvement. We : know that he will never make it to our state : fair and we really question our county fair. : Yes, we have tried calf calm and even some : ace. He acts like he never had any. He is a : head case. Any suggestions? :
