Not a steer?
Last fall we bought 2 young cows. One was a 5 month hereford heifer and the other a 3 month angus steer.
Been thinking of breeding the heifer lately. Also bought a milking shorthorn heifer, and getting ready to have her AI'd.
So, I am out there paying more attention to cow butts.
Looking at the "steer" butt and belly, thinking. how odd. "Belly is aughly smooth fo ra steer, how does he pee?" Keep looking at the butt of the black cow, thinking "not very smooth like a buck goat is" "doesn't look really like the heifer butts, but closer."
Imagine me about 2 feet from the black cow butt, waiting for the tail to swat a fly so I can look again. (not a freindly cow, but at least not a freak)
The cow squats and pees!
We have an angus heifer not an angus steer! ROFL!
Surely glad to have figured it out before we brought a bull over!!!! She is not nearly as large as the other 2 heifers.
Interesting day! Always did think that cow had a feminine face, lol.
