Joe is really good about going in before the auctions.

This is good for them because most kids think milk comes from the store.

We didn't know anything about showing chickens when we got started, but the kids wanted to do it and so we figured it out. Livestock takes a lot of space and money. You can raise birds anywhere, so this division opened the showing experience up to everyone. It's like I always say, you can show a chicken with a stick!

Once people see me and listen to me and see how my decisions go then they'll get a better feeling that I am more independent and can go to both sides.

And what that translates into is the public distrust of decisions or lack of respect.

I want people to view me as open-minded, respectful of people's opinions, approachable.
