Where do they learn these things…

….the other day, while taking pictures of an English bull for the Red Devon USA newsletter, I turned the camera on this young “American” bull.  He immediately snapped to and assumed “the position”.  The minute I moved on, he returned to grazing.

He’s eight months old. From the moment he was born, we felt we had another herd bull…and he’s always acted like the lord of the pasture.  Stands just apart from the herd, calls for his mother when he wants milk and she come over immediately.

He’s THF 126…”Augustine”…you may call him “Gus”!  He’s out of R2, who has produced many of our very best animals.  Sire is “THF Reality”…with a lot of Rotokawa 667 on both sides… as well as Lakota H89 on the dan’s side, who also has a lot of fans.

I’ve always thought bull calves were kinda funny….parodies of the human version.
