Steers before they go...

Some of my cattle (well not actuall MINE, but they're what make the farm runs like it does..)

These two on the left are trouble...

And last but not least, another red angus from the same front bunch.

Well, what do you all think?

Quite nice. Looks like a fine bunch!

Those two halfway down do look like troublemakers

Purty Steer cows

Those pictures really make an old country boy wish he was wherever that is. Loverly countryside and purty cattle.

I Like the red one in the first picture best. Looks like they are all starting to put on their winter coats.

Karin, beautiful animals I'd say. If needed I could quickly drive to Canada and remove those two troublemakers and won't even charge ya a penny....Just tell me when. Also think of all the extra peace you and the other steers will have. The truck is warmed up and ready to go....LOL NICE animals and beautiful land...Tennessee John

LOL they ain't that bad Tenn. John, they're just "pets" that's all, I think they were trying to come up to me to see what the hey I was doing with that shiny silver thing in my hand I was holding in front of my face :lol: . The one with the black face (I call him "Blackie") was one that had a coat coloration that I had never seen before, kinda threw me for a loop until I found out that is was sort of common in the red angus breed (still think he's neat though).

All the steers in all (there's about 100 of them, 1/2 char, 1/3 red angus, the rest red white face, blonde-white face, etc.) are about 1000 pounds, plus or minus, and all are ready to get sold to the feedlot pretty quick. But there'll be more young calves on the way soon to look forward to after these big guys are gone...

And yeah, I guess it is pretty country where I live, thanks!
