I have some mini cows that were born last week. We call them calves.

They will however, grow up to be full size cows.

Did ya check out those mini bucking bulls! Neat video. Interesting concept, those little guys can buck!!!

I've got 7 Dexters, which I guess are Medium Mini's... cause they aren't really that small.
I'd like to cross some Dexters someday to a Lowline or mostly Lowline bull. Do you have any experience with this?

Wstevenl, crossing Dexters with Lowlines is an excellent idea to get more serious beef production. The bull Doc Holliday has been recommended here. He's at the following sites - there are other bulls also.

The link may explain it in more detail but what I meant is a Lowline Angus bull which is a breed of cattle from Australia that comes from Angus. It's a short breed about as tall as Dexter Cattle but it's much more beefy.
