[QUOTE="mlazyj, post: 883049, member: 17406"] Your going to be better off with beef bred calves . they are bred to grow and finish . You are going to spend less money on feed getting them to finish . There's nothing to worry about with steers , they are just like any other cattle how you handle them and act around them makes all the difference . Start them in a small pen and bring their grain in a bucket and put it in a feed bunk . If the calves aren't bunk broke and go right to feed , quietly herd the calve to the bunk , when they stick their noses in and start to eat , just back off abit and stand there for a little bit . Do that for a couple of days and those calves will start meeting you at the gate . Keep the dogs out of the pen . The least amount of distractions and chances of you raising your voice the better off you'll be. [/QUOTE]
