This summer I got a real nice Gert calf. He was all kinds of crazy but by the end of the summer, I had him walking decently. I then, however, hit the school year. I am relatively on my own on my show projects my parents work and when they get home they don't care to mess with a calf. I am also a football player and between school and practice, I get home around dark. The point is this steer has not been worked with near enough. My season ended only a week ago and now this steer refuses to lead. The first day back I tried to lead him in the big pen and he bolted. I have since moved him to a smaller pen, but now he refuses to walk. I'm trying not to just get in a pulling match with him, but I don't know what else to do. He's near 1100 pounds now and the county show is getting way close. Does anyone have any suggestions? Is it too late to try a donkey as a last resort?
