Black Limi Bull pic

[HatCreekFan]

I just figured out how to post pics, so here goes. This is our herd bull- 3 years old, Limi bull, dehorned (I hate it that he's not polled). Sorry about the assorted cow feet, etc., in the background. Kinda makes it hard to see...

Looks like he's found a hole or ditch bank to play in .

Try using a fill flash when the sun is out. It should help clear up the shadowing (especially on black animals).

We filled in a farm pond close to the house, and he really liked that loose dirt. Needless to say, he's going to have to stay that way. I give him his space.

It was close to sunset yesterday - next time I'll try the flash thingy and see if it's better.

Of the limi bulls we've had, I like him the least- not enough in the rear end for me - hard to really evaluate in the photo. I like his length, but that's about it.

I thought he might be a little light in the rear too, but I thought it might be because he's slightly quartering toward the camera.

The truth be known, we haven't named him yet. We have a heifer bull named Josey (after the Outlaw Josey Wales OF COURSE), we've had red limis (Jed, Jethro), and just haven't gotten around to naming this one. I will consider Don King.

he reminds me of Mr T. (B.A. Barackis) in the face/hair. was also thinking he looked a little light in the back but cant really tell from one pic. bet he has good calves though.

[Beefy]

Is it just the picture of is he a bit light in the rear? Any trouble with his disposition?

Yeah. He looks a bit light in the rear end.

 

[HatCreekFan]

It's not an exactly flattering angle, true... and he is light in the rear. What can I say...my husband picked him. ;-) Usually he lets me choose the bulls. If I get over to see our heifers this weekend on some leased pasture, I'll be sure to post a pic. of a bull I picked

No problems with disposition...we've never had (or kept, for that matter) a bull that we didn't like to be around. When he's worked, we make it as quick and painless as possible, though.

Mr. T had a lot of upper body strength too.
