A nice herd of Salers cattle

[ANAZAZI]

And a good bull too in my opinion

Yes, but polled funnel butt cows sell better here...

True that.

Why do they leave the horns?

 

[JWBrahman]

Nice herd, I like the horns. It is easier to tell them apart with the horns, maybe that is why Ram?

 

[ANAZAZI]

Why do they leave the horns?

Because contrary to what the breed is known for in the United States, they are not particularly agressive. And they look better with horns.

 

[ALACOWMAN]

The horns don't bother me as much as, no depth or thickness in the calves..

I can't see the video from here, I'll try and take a look at it tonight.

You can't just have 1 cow with horns.. she'll become a tyrant in the herd, but if they all have them it's a different story.. I too think cows with horns look much nicer (with nice horns of course).

I have three different cows with horns, two of those are tipped, and these three cows are spread among two different herds. None of them is a tyrant or has ever learned to use their horns for dominance. In my opinion they are either bossy or they are not. I have a smallish polled jersey cross that dominates everyone in her herd, and a dehorned Brahman that rules the roost in hers.

I was thinking more about working them in a head gate. A my own safety while working them.
