| NORMAN |
MAD COW DISEASE???
| We bought Norman the first year we moved out here, 8 years ago, when he was a week old. We bought him and his mom with the intent of fattening up Norman and selling him and his mom and buying some more baby cows to help us keep the pasture ate down. But we fell in love with Norman and kept him. He's now our 3000# pet. Everyone is amazed at how big he is. He thinks he's a dog. He head butts the dogs (Bronco is his favorite) and takes off running and the dogs chase him. He loves to play with them. He also loves my 5 year old granddaughter, Teagan. She walks up to him and he puts his head down for her to pet him. One day when it was cold out, I walked to the barn to feed and he came up behind me and butted me and almost knocked me down. I told him if he did that again, we would be having some T-bones for dinner that night. I really scared him so he hasn't done it since! Norman is very popular around our neighborhood. All of our neighbors love him and come and visit him when riding their horses....we love our Norman. |
| I noticed the heifers across the road running towards our house one day and it seems that our canine "stud muffins" aren't the only ones attracting attention. Norman was standing close to the fence and the heifers were doing some serious flirting.... |
