Earlier this month, students headed up to the Broadbent's Ranch in Wyoming for the beloved Sheep Days! They gained real‑world experience conducting breeding soundness exams and spent the day working together, learning, and wrangling a few sheep along the way. 🐑✨

This tradition wouldn’t be possible without the generosity of the Broadbent family and the dedication of Drs. Chad Page and Clay Isom. We’re grateful for all they do to create hands‑on opportunities for our students. 💙

Congratulations to Lexi Jackson, a Graduate Research Assistant, for taking 3rd in the American Society for Animal Science Graduate Student Poster Competition in Wisconsin! ✨

Her poster showcased her research on how protein supplementation impacts grazing ewes body weight, intake, and nitrogen levels. The goal is to help sheep stay healthier through the season and give Cedar Mountain producers better guidance on when and how to supplement.
