A bull fight on the farm gone wrong

When I was a kid on the dairy farm, we only raised a bull calf every few years for breeding, but one year we decided to raise twin bulls from one of our best dairy cows.We named them Big Daddy and Big Blackie. We genuinely had a great time raising those two calves. It is pretty amazing how much bigger and stronger yearling bull calves are compared to the other males bovines who becomeThesesteers.twoHolstein bull brothers grew strong and their muscles just rippled and bulged as the months went by.
Thus, they enjoyed a good year or two of working our 100 cow herd.
I remember giving them a few extra slaps on the shoulders and rubs on the head every day as they grew. They were pretty special animals.
We decided it was a good morning to pitch out the bull pens too, so we decided to turn both bulls out together. After all, they were friendly brothers, right? What could possibly go wrong?Atfirst the two brothers sort of sniffed and grunted and bumped each other around a little out in the cow yard.
and didn’t come down too hard onWeus. always knew when we had messed up even without him saying anything because he had disciplined us when we wereTheyounger.Biblesays in Proverbs 22:15; that foolishness is bound up in the heart of a child, and it takes discipline
They got to run with the cows on an every other day rotation. One day Big Daddy spent the day with the herd while Big Blackie stayed in his pen in the barn, and the next day it was Big Blackies’ day to be let out with the cows.
When they were about 1,500
One thing bulls do in the wild is head fight. Cattle will drop their heads low to the ground and push each other around until one gives in to the stronger animal and trots away taking on a submissive posture.
starting to get a little rougher with each other.
By


We kept an eye on the herd and noticed that the bulls were
My dad wasn’t too happy with our foolishness that day, but he was a very patient man
It was a little icy that day and sure enough the unthinkable occurred. As Big Blackie was pushing, Big Daddy’s rear leg slipped and broke making a loud popping sound.Itwas a very sad day as we had to quickly call the butcher to put the big bull out of his misery. The good thing was that we had plenty of good steaks and burgers the next couple years.
to guide young people on the road to a wise life. Once in a while it takes a little more than a father’s discipline to help a kid learn. It takes trial and error too. We thought that a little excitement would be worth the risk. Turns out it wasn’t. We learned a lesson that day for sure. Until next week, God bless!

pounds each and about three years of age, we moved these two boys into two pens at the end of the dairy barn.
It all came to a screeching halt one cold winter morning


We then started cleaning the pens, pitching large fork loads of straw and manure out of the pen and into the gutter.
