I recently spent $6,500 on this registered Black Angus bull.
It sounds like you made a significant investment in the registered Black Angus bull, hoping for a successful breeding outcome. It can be frustrating when the bull doesn’t show interest in the cows despite being put out with them. There could be several reasons for this behavior.
Firstly, it’s essential to consider the bull’s age and maturity level. Young bulls may not yet have developed the instincts or interest in breeding, especially if they are still adjusting to their new environment.
Secondly, the bull’s health and condition play a crucial role in his breeding behavior. It’s essential to ensure that he is in good health, free from any illnesses or injuries that could affect his libido or interest in mating.
Additionally, the bull’s temperament and disposition can influence his interactions with the herd. Some bulls may be more aggressive or dominant, while others may be more docile or shy, affecting their ability to mate effectively.
Lastly, environmental factors such as stress, unfamiliar surroundings, or changes in routine can impact the bull’s behavior. It may take some time for him to acclimate to his new surroundings and become comfortable enough to engage with the cows.
If the bull continues to show disinterest in breeding after some time, it may be worth consulting with a veterinarian or livestock specialist to assess his health and behavior further. They can provide valuable insights and recommendations for addressing any underlying issues and improving breeding outcomes.
I was beginning to think I had paid more for that bull than he was worth. Anyway……I had the Vet come and take a look at him.
He said,, the bull was very healthy, but possibly just a little young. 😂
so he gave me some pills to feed him once per day.
The bull started to service the cows within two days……. all my cows! He even broke through the fence and bred with all of my neighbor’s cows!
He’s like a machine! I don’t know what was in the pills the Vet gave him … but they kind of taste like peppermint. 🤣
Thanks for visits
Love and peace.
