Today was the local project show. Blake was in a basketball tournament, so he did not show. This was Cordell's first year to show. He was so excited. He did excellent for his first go round.
First was the pig show. Cordell showed Gloria. He got 3rd place in his class. Gloria was frisky when she entered the ring. You could see pure delight in her face! She bounded across the ring with Cordell coming quickly behind her. Then she found something that interested her in the shavings. She dug her nose around, flopped down, and rolled around in it. I have heard the saying, happy as a pig in mud. Well, Gloria was happy as a pig in shavings! Cordell finally got her up and moving again. Then she bounded into him and knocked him down. He took it all in good stride. The judge asked him if his pig's name was Digger.
So here they are - Cordell and Gloria, a.k.a. Digger!
Ayden also showed Gloria in the Little Britches Pig Showmanship. They came out with a blue ribbon!
Next up was the goat show, starting off with the breeding goats. Cordell showed Bitsy. Together they won their class and came away with a plaque for Reserve Champion Breeding Meat Goat!
Then it was Perry's turn. He took 3rd place in his class. Cordell went back to the ring with Perry for the Junior Showmanship round. They did excellent!
Cordell ended the day with 2 third place ribbons, a first place ribbon, and a Reserve Grand Champion Breeding Goat plaque! Way to go!!
