[QUOTE="susanstirling, post: 626971, member: 9369"] My friend and I got our sons ranch steers for 4-H, one ways about 600lbs and ours ways about 500lbs. Ours has always stayed behind the other onebut within a week was coming out and eating out of the bucket while my son held it, he even started licking his wrists. So then the next day he wouldn't come around then he would the next etc. Then we decided to seperate them and put ours in a smaller pen. So we go over he is laying down gets up my son (10) goes in he eats right away, then he cleaned the pen went back in and then he layed down so my son sat on the ground talking to him for a good 15 minutes, then he kept scooting towrads him till he was about 3' away, he stretched out his legs but Nubs got up so did my son, he ate some more. Then our friends got there and we were talking and next thing we know, he is snorting put his head down and shaking his head and started to come at him. Since then her husband has been going in with him now and he will occasionaly do this, it is like he is mad about seperating them. Tonite he started to do this while he was cleaning the pen, then he got the grain and he did a little better. What is the low, moo kinda like a purr mean. I would like to be able to touch him and get a halter on him. My friends sons steer is bigger and they are touching him a little and laying a rope on him, something has got to give. Any suggestions would be great. Thanks, susan [/QUOTE]
