Don't feed as heavy a "finishing" ration as a steer, and don't feed whole cotton seed (not good for reproductive development on bulls). Don't forget he's a bull! Don't pet his head, or let him bob his head at you. Also, I would ring his nose. Many fairs require a bull to have a nose ring, plus it's good practice to show a bull of any age with a ring. He needs exercise just like any animal. We keep our showstring in the barn during the day, but they are turned out to play at night.
