I have a bull that would always babysit the calves while he was a yearling and two year old. He doesn’t seem to do it as much anymore, but he would often be laying with a group of 5 or 6 calves while the cows were off grazing.

Hired Hand Live (the website with the sale results) is an online auction service. They provide a livestream of the auction, so when it is live you can listen and watch. They do sales all over the country, although they seem to be pretty closely tied to the longhorn industry. In the livestream...

The ones that say sold to floor were bought someone who was at the auction while the ones with a name were sold to an online bidder.
