- This video is a pasture walk with some of my longhorn cattle. I explain some of their genealogy. We see a few new babies. The walk takes place early on a beautiful Sunday Morning.

I’m not American, I didn’t realise longhorns still existed, I had some vague idea they were just an “olden days” breed. They look amazing!! Those HORNS!!!!
I know they are being very calm and placid in this video, but if I were a hungry coyote who saw a calf I wouldn’t like my chances if an adult was nearby, lol.
Speaking of which, at about 27:00 when you showed us Rosie and her calf, it kind of looked like Rosie and the other cows were almost triangulating around the little group of calves. Do you think this was conscious? Are longhorns similar to other herd breeds in that the herd collectively watches out for everyone’s calves not just their own?
That was a wonderful presentation of your herd! They are beautiful and you give your animals the exceptional care and attention that they deserve.
Thank you it’s a full time family affair lol
I vote for leaving him a bull
Thank you for the input! I’m leaning that way. I think his color and horn are going to be special!
Keep him a bull and no sale. You have already sold too many beautiful heifers. ❤
He’s been favorite of the two that group of calves. He seems to have a favorable attitude. We have sold a lot over the last couple years but that’s a good thing! We love to see our ladies as the foundation of other herds
Your animals are fascinating. I just discovered your channel today, so you may have discussed this before, but, are they aware of the span of their own horns, and how do they avoid injuring each other?
Thank you for watching! They know exactly where their horns are. Watching them walk through timber or around our working pens and gates is evidence. They’ll tilt their heads just right so they don’t hit the tips. They’ll turn their heads to load in a trailer. It’s pretty amazing considering some of them had a 7ft span.
Seriously, I just want to know how it goes fitting them horns in a trailer?
They know exactly where the tips of their horns are. They’ll turn their heads and move with an uncanny instinct. I’ve seen them run through timber and never touch a branch!
@@murrayfarmranch8447 that's good to know, thanks for getting back to me on that
