Cattle breed pics only (no comments please)

wow? I am shocked by that. How old to ranchers usually keep a cow going? I was thinking 10-12 years...never 20. WOW!

That really all depends on how productive a cow is and how strict or what the culling criteria is. There are many farms and ranches that can't afford to keep an old cow until she dies of old age, but there are some that can. Basically as long as a cow is able to produce a calf she's a keeper. I've heard of plenty of cattlemen keeping cows until they were "old enough to vote."

Anyone have any Maine Anjou pics to share? Looking for pics of steers and heifers, even if they're crossbreds.

Is anyone willing to share some more Simmental pics? I got the ones of the heifer and bull earlier in this forum, but would like some more, particularly with bulls, calves, steers, young heifers...crossbred, fullblood or purebred would be just fine.
