[QUOTE="cowgirl8, post: 1498464, member: 22072"] We run multiple bulls with all our herds. Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't. Any time you have more than one bull, they will fight. Its a juggling act to get them with bulls they get along with. Year before last, we put the bulls back in their pasture for their off time. They kept beating up one bull where he wouldn't stay in their pasture. When we pulled them off last August, we put the beat up bull in first, then the others. So far so good. My daughter had a bull killed yesterday by his pasture friends. Spent all winter getting along, then no so much. When running with the cows, if we find one bull away from the herd, we'll switch him around or we'll sell and buy another.....or sometimes we have a spare bull.....Last year we ran 3 bulls with our heifers and second calf cows.. 2, 3 yr olds and one 5 yr old. I think the key is to have enough pasture so they can spread out if running more than one.. [/QUOTE]
