Bulls fight
Uploaded by: Hollinfarms
Video Description:
Angus bulls on Hollin Farm near
Delaplane, Virginia, posture and fight for dominance in their group of males. The mature bulls weight over a ton.
Music is "Take Five" from "The Essential Dave Brubeck" available on iTunes and on CD.Video footage by my son Robert Davenport.
This video shows why bulls are hard to raise. They are so big and strong that when they fight, they destroy fences and buildings. We have had several bulls that broke their legs in these battles and had to be put down.
Usually a group of bulls will sort things out after a few days and don't fight much after that. But introduce a new bull, and there is trouble.
Steers (being castrated) do not exhibit this competitive behavior to the extent that bulls do. Steers are easier to manage. Hence feedlots have steers or heifers but hardly ever bulls. However, steers grow slower than bulls and hence a general agricultural practice in the USA is to give them growth hormones in a small implant in their ear. This makes the steers grow and put on weight at the same rate as bulls. However, they never become as muscular as these bulls are.
We don't give implants as part of our natural beef program.

Angus bulls are generally not very aggressive toward people. Angus cattle are a British breed developed for beef. Their beef has more marbling (fat) than European or Indian/Africa breeds. They are "polled" (they are bred to have no horns) and this makes them less dangerous to people and to each other.
However, Angus cows can be dangerous when they have young calves and sometimes will chase you when they feel that their calf is threatened. I've been knocked down and Mimi was hit by a cow and flipped backwards over a barred wire fence.
I have put up a youtube doc "Tagging Calves, Dangerous Work".

| That is my biggest worry, we all let our watch down when we have a sweet male animal. The bad thing is he could and might hurt you when you treat him like a pet. All our stock male & feamale are taught to be claim. Any bad habits are corrected and if they can't, they ar CULLED! (Culled: NOT PASSING ONTO ANOTHER PERSON, BUT KILLING THEM OUT.) |

| yes but like the old saying goes...bring up an animal in the direction you want it to go and it will not turn......i have stock of my own and i personally havent been seriously hurt because you need to know the boundaries of the animal...if you respect it it will respect you |

| That is messed up. We were always allowed to deal with the mules, bulls, cows, chickens etc. We were not allowed near the full grown pigs. Especially sows with piglets. Most of the pigs were mellow with humans but there were a few that would kill you if you made a mistake. |
