It is usually a sign of respect and treating the steer affectionately....Naming it shows you care for it, and it is also much, much easier to call a steer a name such as buddy instead of just a number such as 2459. (Most farms number their cattle, so when you receive a steer for a 4-H project, there is usually a number on the registration.)

How do you choose a good black angus steer?

A good Angus steer, especially if you are choosing a steer for 4H or FFA, must have good conformation, good average daily gain (preferably 2 lbs per day or more) and good feed intake. You can choose your steer from a local cattle producer that raises Black Angus cattle to find a good steer to raise for the show circuit. The cattle producer will help you find the best steer for you as well.

Where can you get Ducklings IN Southeastern WI?

Where can you buy one or two fertilized chicken eggs for under 20?

For just one or two viable eggs the best place to go is a local feed outlet and post a notice asking for fertilized eggs. Most farms have a rooster among the flock and would be glad to sell or even give you an egg or two. If you want a certain breed just ask for those with that breed. You will pay for hard to find breeds but most are well below the $20.00 price for even a dozen. Another way to get them is to contact your local 4H club and ask for the poultry club leader. Leaders are usually farmers who have or know a lot about the farmers in the area who raise chickens.

What is the answer to 19g-4h plus 4-20(g-1)?

To simplify the expression (19g - 4h + 4 - 20(g - 1)), first distribute the -20: (19g - 4h + 4 - 20g + 20). Combine like terms: ((19g - 20g) + (-4h) + (4 + 20)) simplifies to (-g - 4h + 24). Therefore, the final answer is (-g - 4h + 24).
