I'm used to being around goats so raising this calf has been a whole new experience for me. He listens better than the goats, he leads and ties fairly well, and he is really gentle with the baby pygmy goats who are sooo tiny compared to him. Is this behaviour typical of your average 7 month old calf or is he an exceptional steer? I've noticed that the mama goats purposely leave their kids in his care, more than once I've found him with baby goats bouncing all over his back and cuddled up next to him. I suppose he has no idea he's a cow, the only animals he's ever known have been cats, chickens and goats, which might help explain why he is so good with the baby goats.
