Guess you got to ask yourself why you bought the animals in the first place, just to have them, breed them, raise calves, butcher them at a later date, and go from there.
The poop on the butt, I think is normal, good grass makes loose stools, not a big issue. The flys, I use a sprayer with de lice soln, a few times during the summer, works great and is inexpensive, yu want to keep the flies away, especially with the white around their eyes, will be more susceptible to pink eye. Everything else is just common sense really, they are 6 months old, so they are beyond the calf issues, such as scours, etc.. They must be newly weaned from the Mom, so thats not an issue, I'd say just keep on what you are doing, and enjoy the new animals.
