Adventerous bullock

The Jersey bull calf we just had a few weeks ago is WAY different than the one that the cow came with (graft). The first one stayed next to his Mama all the time.

This one ducks under the electric fence and visits everyone. When I come home, the Mom is out grazing in the pasture and he's laying down in the front lawn like a dog. The other day, my son was at the bottom of our 500' driveway fixing fencing and the calf was all the way down there, standing next to him just watching.

Also, when he was only two weeks old, he would already do the bull fighting stance. When I was driving away and stopped to look at him, he would paw the ground and charge the car.

He is Mister Personality.

By the way - he's sold for $100. I thought I got a pretty good price for a jersey bull calf.

Actually, the personality might make him a really dangerous bull, if he were kept one, huh?
