One of those days..

[Limomike]

Had two late calves yesterday... both bulls.. one red one black.
Red one crapped all over me while I was banding it...and that was after roping it twice, and it got loose. (I was kind of glad to get that small green band around his nuts) :x
Black one was real wild one... roped him once.. got him down.. then he proceeded to knock my hat off, as well as kick me right in the jaw, leaving a mark and swollen jaw. Again.. it felt good to get that band on that one too!!

having a bad day like that is rough.all you can do is hope you can end the day without getting hurt to bad.no worries now those bad little bulls are now steers.

It could have been worse - you could have had 2 dead calves. ;-) It goes with the territory!

thats right.. they are both doing fine now.
That black one was fairly big when he was born, just a stout little bull calf. Hes going to a brute.
But with his Momma being a big red Santa Gertrudis, and his Daddy a big black Limi.. no wonder.
I actually love this life.. no matter what happens.
