[QUOTE="Karin, post: 974000, member: 18961"] So you're not using him for breeding purposes or anything? Is he eventually going in the freezer, or just as a lawn ornament for you? The reason I encourage you to consider castrating him ASAP is because he may become not the kind of friendly bovine you had in mind. Bulls, no matter the breed, should never be made into pets--if that's what you're doing to him--because they can and will turn on you without warning. At this age he may start to show a bit of that towards you, even though I've no idea nor have you ever mentioned anything about it. He could be younger than what you think, too, but that's just a hunch I have. I've never heard of dewormers coming in pellet form, just via block (Safe-Guard), pour-on or injectible. It's best to get your vet to run a fecal on him to see what kind of parasites he's got and what meds you can use to hit them. [/QUOTE]
