    Dexter bull and Dexter steer buddy

    Greetings, thought I'd add an undated picture of Dusty my bull, now nine months old and the new friend I got for him, four months old. It's amazing how much calmer my bull is now. Enjoy. http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v482/ ... 0_0079.jpg

    Minature Holstein

    I have a Dexter bull, and pondered that idea of getting a dairy cow to put with him. Haven't given up the thought, just the few I've seen are much taller than he is?

    Dexter Cattle

    I have an eight month old dun Dexter bull. I love him. Next year I'll be looking at heifers and cows. Great breed and nice attitudes.

    Bull

    I like smooth heads, so the black would be my first choice of the two. However, I really like the red highland. Lots of body and I like that too.

    Dexter steer

    I visited my dexter steer today. 2 1/2 months old. I get him mid December at weaning. He'll be the pasture buddy for my bull. He's maybe 24" on his tippy-hoofs. I love the attitude look. http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v482/ ... 0_0058.jpg

    What is everyone's choice breed?

    I like the little guys... Dexter's. Dual breed meat and milk, docile temperment and easy to handle by myself. I personally prefer polled.

    Dexter bull

    :lol: Every day I answer the question at work "How's the cow?" At first I'd tell them he's a bull, not a cow. Now I just smile and say he is doing great. Thank you for all the positive comments about our Dexters :heart:

    Dexter bull

    Sounds like the sharing with a calf is the way to go. Thanks. Monica, got the bull from Lazy J5. Great people to know and nice animals. I drank my first glass of cold fresh out-of-cow milk at their place. I was amazed at the difference than from store bought. The scenery is truly...

    bull breeding age

    Ask the vet what to expect after the shot. Boarded a mare once on 20 acres. Guy dropped off a two year old 'gelding' .... except that he bred a few mares before someone looked closer :mad: Mine having been seen 'caught,' I had the vet out. After the shot, my poor mare started sweating real...

    bull breeding age

    Does it harm the bull, mentally or physically, to breed at an early age? I read that you shouldn't (on purpose) before he is a year.
