Last year, Bradley was able to show a pig with his cousin at the open show at the fair. My sister-in-law, Janet, gave him the opportunity, we got him ready, took him out to practice with the pigs a couple times, but I never actually thought he would go in the ring with his cousin Morgan, I was shocked and amazed when he did.
This year, Aunt Janet asked him if he was going to show a pig again and he said yes. A few days later, he informed me that he was going to show all by himself and he wanted a trophy!
I told him, he would probably get a ribbon.
So he has been out walking or trying to keep up with them and attempting to wash them.
Last night, "Aunt" Bryan told him he would be showing Buckwheat the Crossbred Barrow. He practiced trying to keep the pig between himself and the "judge" and it sort of worked. We will see come Saturday afternoon if he actually shows by himself, his cousin Morgan will be on standby just in case he shuts down, after all he is only 3!
This picture is from a different day of practicing.
