At the State Fair livestock exhibitors have a chance to showcase their prowess in raising all kinds of animals. This year, exhibitors will show off more than 15 different breeds of cattle, nine breeds of sheep, rabbits, and llamas. Peyton Higdon, 10, and her Beefmaster heifer Stas take some time to relax before their competition at the junior show.
