Every Show Family Has Questions.
Let’s Talk About Yours.
Your first livestock project or your fourth generation in the barn—there’s always something to learn.
Drench Line helps families understand their options, ask better questions, and make decisions that fit their kids, their goals, and their budget.
What should we actually expect walking into our first jackpot show?
How do I pick the right animal for my kid's first year?
How long do we need to exercise our animals to build muscle?
My kid weighs 70 pounds. Can they even show sheep or goats?
When am I supposed to worm and vaccinate — and what am I even using?
Is sheep and goat showing too much for a kid who's never been around livestock?
How do I navigate the Texas major show circuit without looking like I have no idea what I'm doing?
What kind of feed or supplements do I need to use at different times of the year?
What's the difference between how the top breeders feed and what the rest of us do?
Decades of Experience.
Plenty of Lessons to Share.
Sam Silvers and Logan Newsom have each spent more than 30 years working in show livestock, helping families with different backgrounds, budgets, and goals. They’ve learned through tough decisions, hard seasons, and things they’d do differently today.
Drench Line is where they pass those lessons along.
Our focus is the show livestock world, with sheep and goats at the center. We talk about the genetics, products, daily care, and economics that shape a show project—and what those decisions mean for the families making them.
As producers and show dads, Sam and Logan want families to feel comfortable asking questions and reaching out for help. By sharing experience and opening up conversations, we can build stronger relationships and help the whole industry move forward.

Logan Newsom
Sheep producer — Olton, Texas
Logan was born in the Texas Panhandle and grew up in West Texas, where he showed sheep and hogs before landing at Angelo State to play football. He eventually joined the livestock judging team, spent time in Texas Agri-Life Extension Service, and returned to what he knows best: raising sheep. He's currently a full-time sheep producer based in Olton, Texas, raising his family in the same world he grew up in.
Sam Silvers
Sheep and goat producer, rancher — Junction, Texas
Sam was raised in Salado, Texas, spent his summers working sheep in West Texas, livestock judged at South Plains before finishing his degree at Texas Tech. He's held roles as a Texas Agri-Life County Extension agent, a Border Patrol agent, Livestock pharmaceutical salesman and is now the Small Ruminant Technical Sales Support Senior Manager for BioZyme Inc., the makers of Sure Champ and DuraFerm. He's one of the few people who can say both himself and his son have won the Houston Livestock Show and Rodeo market lamb show.
The Kids Are Why We’re Here.
A livestock project gives kids a place to practice responsibility, build confidence, and learn how to lead. The work they put in and the relationships they build can stay with them long after show day.
We want more families to feel welcome in this world—and more kids to find a reason to stay. Helping parents feel informed and supported is part of making that happen.

Drench Line was built for the conversations that actually move the sheep and goat industry forward—the ones happening in the barn, on the wash rack, and behind the scenes.
We’re opening the door for a limited number of founding partners to get in early. That means flexible placements and pricing that won’t last forever.
Whether it’s a quick ad read, a full episode feature, or an in-person interview at a show or your operation, we’re building this with brands and breeders who want to be part of the conversation—not just sit on the sidelines.
Studio shoots and expanded video formats are coming soon, and our goal is simple: make your brand feel like it belongs here.
If you’re looking to lock in early, let’s talk.
