More Efficient Cattle Operations: Marketing, Planning & Daily Work with ChatGPT

This three-part interactive course is designed specifically for cattle operations who want to use ChatGPT as a practical and efficient ranch tool.
Participants will learn how to customize ChatGPT so it reflects your breeding philosophy, your tone with customers and buyers, your educational approach as well as your need for accuracy, consistency, and privacy.
Amy Maynard of Maynard’s Triple M mirrors how ChatGPT is actively used in her Highland operation—for education, marketing, genetics discussions, customer communication, documentation, and training—while giving participants the confidence to adapt it for their own farms.
We know your schedule doesn’t always line up with live presentations – that’s why we offer both live sessions and on-demand access.
LIVE SESSIONS: January 13, 20 & 27
OPEN DISCUSSIONS: January 15, 22 & 29

The Cowgirl Confident Cattle Cotillion

The Cattle Cotillion is a guided Cowgirl Confident experience that leads to a high-trust online auction finale. Calves eligible for the featured auction are developed through months of live education, intentional preparation, and veterinary inspection with transparent health documentation, giving both sellers and buyers added confidence.

Develop your calf. Prepare with intention. Sell with confidence.

You do not have to own or actively develop a calf to benefit from this series.

The Cattle Cotillion Online Series is a live-led, step-by-step program designed to help participants confidently develop their calves at home. Inspired by the tradition of a cotillion, the series blends preparation, presentation, creativity, and community—applied directly to real cattle work.

Sessions are presented live beginning February 3, 2026 and recorded for on-demand access, allowing participants flexibility while maintaining accountability.

LIVE SESSIONS: Feb 3 – Apr 30
Online DVAuction: TBD

What Our Participants Say

Don’t take our word for it-hear it directly from the women who’ve attended Cowgirl Confident. From first-timers to seasoned ranch hands, their stories say it best: confidence is built through experience, skills grow with practice and community makes all the difference.

“Put my Cowgirl Confident skills I learned at the IDEXX session to use! I was able to pull blood to give to our vet so she could create a serum for one of our weanling calves who has a bad eye ulcer.”

Nina M.

“Excited to share, Shannon M. and I attended Cowgirl Confident Oct. 2024. I learned so much! I wanted to share that with what I learned and Shannon’s verbal support via phone my husband and I were able to assist and deliver our neighbor’s calf who was in trouble. She was a young first-time mom and she wasn’t progressing. When we looked closer he only had one hoof present. We were able to push him back in, find his other hoof and get him out!! His mouth and tongue were starting to turn purple, but once we pushed him back in and found his foot he pinked up quickly and then he came right out!! I really never thought I’d actually be hands on, especially when it wasn’t even our cows!! So grateful for all of you and all you expertise, grateful we happened to be called over to their house or it may have been a different ending!!”

Kari G.

“Yesterday, we had a bred heifer get out of the pasture around the tractor at the gate. She was enjoying some fresh grass by the garden, as we all went to get her back into the pasture. In the process of getting her in the pasture, I got kicked by her. It’s not the first time I’ve been kicked, but this is the first time I knew why. Thanks to the cattle movement class I knew I wasn’t positioned off her hip correctly and it was a great reminder to be constantly assessing your position when moving cattle.”

Courtney H.

“A little story to tell y’all! As I’m still shaking. I just had a feeling mid morning that it was time for Willa. Sure enough she wasn’t with the herd. She was hidden well. Took me an hour and a half to find her in the woods. She was down and pushing, straining with nothing coming out in a way that didn’t seem normal. Fast forward after trying to get her tied to a tree we ended up getting her up into our chute. Thank God I had just been to cowgirl confident and saw first hand what you were feeling for inside a cow and the positions a calf could be in. I reached in and felt the tail head and hips. No feet. I struggled to find both rears. Found one, it came out, but couldn’t get the other. So had to put it back in. the cow was crying in pain and pushing against me. At times smashing my hand between the calf and her pelvic bone. I took a break and called every vet and cattle person I knew hoping someone could come help. But nobody answered. I took a deep breath and went in again with both hands. I remembered what our instructor said. I closed my eyes and slowly found both hips and moved my hands down the legs slowly and after some maneuvering I finally had both rear hooves. I twisted slightly and pulled and they seemed to fly back. I wrapped the chains as we were shown and pulled that calf out as momma pushed. I was fully prepared for a dead calf. But he was ALIVE. I did it, y’all! And you can too! 💪🤠“

Sarah T.

“Used my Cowgirl Confident skills again tonight…”know when you need help.” Ended up calling the vet for some assistance with a stuck calf. Had to use a calf puller with the chains for the first time Angus/Highland heifer. Baby and Momma are doing great and I’m glad I knew to give a heads up to the vet and reach out again when we needed help. We did have momma in the chute when the vet arrived, so cattle handling also came in handy. “
