There are a number of posts on this Beginners board referring to the BAD habits of bulls. If you raise any number of cattle you know bulls and or the danger of bulls as well as cows. Folks if you are new to cattle please take to heart these words!!!
You are dealing with 1000lb to 2500lb animals that at anytime can hurt you!!! The fact is that we dominant the animal world and the minute you let one of those cattle know you are scared of them is the same time you get hurt! A bull is nothing to be scared of as some will tell you. Rather be sure that at ALL times you are safe from his aggressive behavior and if he does give you the eye make sure he regrets it.
Animals respond to the dominate animal and in your case you have to be the dominate animal!!
Bulls are one of the greatest sources of pride for a rancher and you should not rob yourself of the joy of owning one because of some peoples fear of them.
Be very careful and respectful of your bulls BUT do not be scared of him!
