I posted a while back about my backyard steers, well I have to butcher a few weeks earlier than I wanted to, but oh well. I think for almost 90 days on grain they dont look to bad.
the first two pics is when I brought them home
and these are what they look like yesterday
I gave up trying to guess what breed was in there, they are half brothers, a 4 way cross, the one with horns still looks like he is half yak with that long shaggy hair and those horns. they will be butchered in the morning, hoping the polled one weighs at least a grand, im guessing the yak between 8 and 900, I have no idea honestly, how to guess a weight so I will know tomorrow. Anyone care to take a guess?? hard to tell from pics I am sure but kind of fun, take a guess.
I was kinda mean to the Yak yesterday and I feel kinda bad but he deserved it, he likes to sneak up behind me when I am dumping grain and right after I got them he tried to head butt me and I hit him between the eyes with a metal can. he minds his manners now but I dont like him behind me like that so when I looked down and his nose was next to my knee, I reached down and grabbed his whole nose and yelled GOTCHA!!!!!!! I thought he was gonna die of a heart attack on the spot, he went 4 feet in the air legs stiff as a board I swear!! He kept his distance this morning when I fed them tho!
