    Bad luck keeps on coming

    Well I had him locked up in my barn. Had a gate held shut with some baling twine but he broke out of there into a pen with some feeders. I had some hay to get up so left him be in there. He tore up a net wire fence and is now back on the neighbors property. Just put that fence up a month ago...

    So the neighbors bull is back. Chased him around for about an hour before I could get him caught in my pen. He went thru two fences this time. When I contact the owner should I suggest hauling it to the sale barn for him or talk hard about other fencing options. He just has a small 30 acre hobby...

    Pay day

    Here are a few more I took today. Top one was a friends that didn’t grow out good. The other two small ones could have held them longer but figured I would take the chance.

    According to their policy coverage was for a bull. Nothing more specific for that. You can own multiple bulls and if one dies under one of the items it’s covered. Only found all this after I was denied the claim.

    I kept his head for those reasons you said. I then found out this insurance company did not need proof of an exact animal. Just had to show proof of a bull. Getting a mount of him now since I didnt have to show proof of his tattoos.

    Not sure I could produce sufficient evidence of anything for them to change their minds. Lack of autopsy from a third party I feel like is a loss of leverage on my part. Not that I would persuade the third party to fall into one of the 25 parameters. ;)
