Steer

All I can think about is how much <a href="http://www.billingsgazette.com//index.php?id=1&display=rednews/2004/08/17/build/local/40-red-steer-big.inc">Big Red</a> would eat and how much manure there would be to cart away. You could say this sounds like bullshit but since he is a steer that would be inappropriate. <br />n<br />nMy dad talks about when he took over the ranch from his grandpa how there where some big steers running around it. His grandpa would run steers until they were 3-4 years old before he sold them. When dad took over he said there were about 20 head that grandpa could not catch and were still on the loose. They were all better than 5 years old and it took a few years to capture the wild critters. He describes the last one he managed to get in about like Big Red. 6 Ft. tall and just huge. He said one of the problems was it was so big the horses were scared of it. Finally got it in and took it to town and sold it. He said it didn't bring much money because it was too big for a normal butcher facility. I can belive it.<br />n<br />n<b>A thing may be incredible and still be true; sometimes it is incredible because it is true. Herman Melville</b>
