[QUOTE="Running Arrow Bill, post: 86217, member: 9"] We raise registered Longhorns. However, we are presently boarding some registered Dexters for their owner who is finalizing their facility in the SW Texas area. We are presently boarding one young cow who just had a calf last week (41 lbs), one heifer, and one almost yearling bull. In June we'll be boarding 4 more for a month or so. This aside: The Dexters here are rather gentle, weigh between 500 and 600 lbs as "young adults", easy to manage, the one 1st calf heifer that had calf last week had no problems calving and produced a very nice looking calf. She is a good mama. We are boarding both red and black dexters here, all horned. The reds are relatively rare. The "short" horns of the Dexters are part of their trait and heritage. To de-horn one would be a serious dis-service to the breed. If one wants a Dexter w/o horns, then they should get the polled ones. [/QUOTE]
