Royal Family Feeder

Have a novel idea for a piece of equipment? Or a re-purpose of an old piece of equipment?

lol. I grew up on a small cow/calf farm and you never turned your back on the bull or entered the field without a stick or other weapon. Therefore I was afeard of him for a while, but, if you go anywhere in the world and trek into a purebred Galloway herd you are safe unless there are protective mommas with very young calves. They have been bred as docile easy keepers for 1000's of years. Stressing the term purebred.

Did you name the little guy Decalf because his parents are d'cow and d'bull? Lol. Nice looking herd.

When I was young the Hereford bulls around were mostly quiet but the shorthorns could be nasty. When I was a teenager my Dad was nearly killed by a bull, the only thing that saved him was the early spring mud caused him to slide along the ground instead of being crushed into the ground. It was a close call.

The photographer was taking beauty shots and close ups until I explained we're selling steaks so it isn't a bad thing to have a shot of them going away. He replied "I never take ass shots but whatever you want!" lol
Keep in mind Baxter is just over 2 now and is going to add a lot in the next couple of years. I've already had the breeder request him back after seeing the last shot.

Wow, I may be in love!!!
Since it's absolutely impossible to choose the best, I will go with my 3 best :)
If I have to choose three,
#1 last picture mom and babe
#2 the fourth picture of his handsomeness
#3 the heard heading along the fence with trees in the background.
OK, I voted before the second batch was posted, but will stick to my original vote, I think.
