[QUOTE="Red Fred, post: 5392560, member: 189"] Often working on the farm at home leads to division into "The animal person" and "the tractor person" and never the twain shall meet as intense rivalry/jealousy spreads between the two and they end up as busy fools. Sadly, being the best milker or tractor driver in the county doesn't really look like a very good long term prospect for a youngster on a family farm without a bit of outside business experience although both trades can pay well if used to advantage away from the home farm. Has anyone else ever listened to a farm kid telling everyone how busy they have been working getting ready for the local show, starting at 5am, halter training, etc? Well sorry but with few exceptions, that is just a bit of a hobby and shouldn't really be classed as hard work any more than polishing up the old Fergie is hard work. :) [/QUOTE]
