I like to make sure that my bull calves have a great start on milk as well as have their vaccinations. Once they have a clean bill of health I sell them to my neighbor (who also is a dairy farmer but also raises beef steers). She keeps our bull calves and raises them for about 1.5-2 yrs of age. <br /><br />All of our calves, regardless of their gender are treated humanely, it's what we do, because we care.
