Our second school of the August western trip was near Caldwell, Idaho at South Mountain Cattle. We’d like to especially thank Matt and Pyper Duckett for hosting us at their ranch!
And, we would also like to sincerely thank the following businesses for providing lunches for the classes:
- Performix – www.performixnutrition.com
- Zoetis – www.zoetis.com/animal-health
- Merck – www.merck-animal-health-usa.com

Matt supplied these really nice heifers. After just a little bit of work in the pen, they all had to start eating this old straw (even though they had came off of great alfalfa earlier in the morning). That means they were being handled well!
