For now, Sam and Logan sat down to knock out round two of listener Q&A, picking up where Episode 9 left off.\nFirst up, Donna Jo asks how smaller exhibitors can brace bigger lambs without getting pushed around — Sam and Logan break down halter breaking, hand walking, buying sheep that actually fit the kid's size, and why \"good enough\" beats chasing perfection on a back leg. Jace wants to know the best exercises for building muscle on a show sheep or goat, so the guys walk through their track, treadmill, and walker rotation, plus exactly how many days a week they train once they're inside that 60–90 day window before a show.\nClaire asks how often to change leg wraps (weekly, with a laundry-service hack you'll want to steal), Brad wants to know how to stop a sheep from shaking its head while driving, and Brittany asks whether a market wether needs a buddy at home. Sean and Shauna close things out with a great one for Midwest families: how does a Texas show timeline compare to a Midwest show season, and how should you adjust your own feeding curve accordingly.\nSam and Logan also tease a handful of topics they're saving for full episodes down the road — breaking into the Texas sheep market as a Midwest breeder, building relationships with traders, spotting fake sale photos, judging trends, AI breeding, and a deeper dive into health and doctoring. Plus a quick update on what's happening at home: heat stress, parasite pressure, a scrapie case out west, and the fall fair shows both guys have circled on the calendar.\nSubscribe on Spotify, Apple Podcasts, and YouTube.
