    I thought that ou were becoming an auctioneer?

    There's good money out of paring if you're good at it and can build up a good customer base. It takes time and patience.

    The one thing in short supply are good hoof trimmers. There is always an opening for a good one if you are mediocre you will starve.
    What part of the country are you in. Our trimmers are two guys who work together with a rollover crate one trimming front feet and the other doing back feet. They are the best I've seen, I would recommend you take a look at their crate, they designed and fabricated it themselves.

    cheers delaval i think your wasting your time at the game unless you try and do everything right for the farmer,, and if were on the same boat i seen it not that long serious job so it is, and fair play to him hes flying it!! farmers seemed to love ta see his roll over crate coming vs the stanard crate!
