[QUOTE="DOC HARRIS, post: 168943, member: 1683"] Let's consider this problem in a calm and rational manner! :lol: :roll: Is your entire herd comprised of Longhorns (crappy horned or not)? :oops: Is the bull she is bred to a Longhorn, Shorthorn, or a NO horn? Have you analyzed and determined the cost factors in keeping this - uh - a - hmmmm - creature insofar as feed, housing, care, wear and tear on your nerves and the rather fragile and somewhat unstable personal relationship tendencies this situation is creating between yourself and your husband?? Husbands are tenuous beings, and their psyche's are at times augured and in danger of becoming frazzled and fractured, thereby causing your personal relationships to be on tenter- hooks! I am sure that your help-meet is more precious to you than a crappy-horned splatter-faced albeit marvelous hay-burner - pregnant tho she may be! My advice to you is to give long and careful thought regarding the retention of this bovine individual and her adorable yet dubious offspring. Husbands long to be loved and cuddled more than a cow, and his patience and possibly jealous feelings could be near the breaking point! I presume that you would not want your bovine buddy to be named co-respondent in a divorce proceeding. I hear that California is real tough in those instances! :shock: Of course, the Stupid 9th Circuit Court of Appeals out there would be liable to do anything - perhaps even to the point of awarding you custody of the offspring and a healthy calf-support stipend to boot! :???: Taken all-in-all, I think I would opt to ship the cow after she produces the calf to a marketable profit point - after de-horning her, of course so she will not damage the hides of her fellow livestock market-feedlot compadres. Just my thoughts. DOC HARRIS [/QUOTE]
