[QUOTE="sjr725, post: 381923, member: 4936"] Thanks, I looked back in my records and found that this was the first time this particular cow has been bred by this particular bull - won't do that again - we put her in with a different bull this year. Like I said, we've had the cow for a while - she was with a small lot of bwf heifers we bought from a neighbor and she's always given us a nice calf, so we won't hold this against her - we just won't breed her to the same bull again - the bull we've had for about 4 seasons and never had this happen before - so I have to think it's just a genetic quirk when these two got together?? This steer is really just odd looking - he has really long hair on his poll - like a forelock and practically no legs at all - kinda like a jack russel terrier! His body is good sized though - I'll let you all know what his carcass weighed and what it looked like just in case you're interested. [/QUOTE]
