NAME THE BULL!

[JoeBnTN]

Is he a South Devon or Galloway?

 

[fullblood]

looks like polled shorthorn? what year was he?

 

[clippityclop]

Those are good guesses, but none of those are the right breed. 
The bull was born in 1969.

 

[HCCHSS]

Maybe Red Angus    :-\

 

[farmboy]

he has a white tail... Pinzaguer?

 

[Cowfarmer65]

Is he a Lincoln Red

 

[vcsf]

My guess on breed would be Luing.

 

[clippityclop]

Just to bring you up to date, the last four guesses are incorrect as well.
Some good guesses though.

 

[GM]

You said it wasn't South Devon, so I'm going to guess Devon ...Brightley Cardinal 2nd?

 

[vcsf]

Going to go a different direction on breed and guess Angus and probably a fairly well known one.

 

[shorthorn boy]

Red Poll?

 

[clippityclop]

You're right shorthorn boy - he is a Red Poll.  I thought it might take a little longer than that for someone to get the right breed.
The bull's name is Rodeo Buster 17A.  He was born on May 24, 1969 and was bred by Harold Howe of Swalwell, Alberta.
I think he looks like a fairly impressive bull.
Thanks to everyone for their guesses.

Hey Merlin - how have you been? he is one for you!

 

[Shady Lane]

I believe that to be the Black Angus bull commomly known as "Butter Ball".

Butterball is a turkey - this is a cow (right breed thought

 

[clippityclop]

Hello DL.  I'm fine - and hope that you are too.
I had absolutely no guess at your cow, so I cheated and called up a friend of mine. (You've been in contact with him through one of the other forums).
His thought was that she resembles Lucy of Eldorado.
If that's wrong, maybe someone else on the board who is a history guru will be able to answer.
I'll try and get organized enough to email you one of these times.

Ya right, they say that purebred breeders are showing thier breeding animals too fat these days,wow. Sorry dont have a guess either but she is fat.

 

[farmboy]
