Bull of the Woods

[Rustler9]

This BT Heineken Dark, was out taking pictures this morning and thought this was a neat one. He's five years old, has 60" horns tip to tip. Some of you may like him, some won't.

WOW!

I wonder how many times he clunks his head trying to walk between trees.

I wonder how many times he clunks his head trying to walk between trees.

I bet he walks with his head tilted sideways!

Thanks alot. He's done a good job for us. Sure puts out some good daughters, good horns and really throws out the milk on them.

so I'm wondering when an animal like that is slaughtered do you get a premium for the horns ie collectors items

 

[Rustler9]

We send steers to slaughter but don't try to keep the horns. I'm sure some folks do. This bull probably won't be going to slaughter any time soon. He's still got alot of breeding to do. I think a bull's offspring get better as he ages. We have alot of cows that we haven'y used him on.

WOW look at 'em horns!!

Nice looking bull Ruslter9. We've just recently acquired a black speckled bull that I think will add some horn to our herd. He's 47 3/4" at a little over 2 yrs old.

Rustler, how would you describe his personallity? My daughter claim cattle don't have personallity, but the few I had when I was a kid did. Some where agressive, some were calm. Some where loners, some wouldn't leave you alone and seem to want to know what you're up to when you're working around them. We had one who thought he was a calf and dance around you until you gave him cow cookies or grain. That same one would nudge your arm if you didn't scratch him or give him attention when he came around.
