We call our Longhorn's lookie luu's, they are here because we raised them all, and all there family, we enjoy having them, a little history of the old west. It's a wonder to me how they live so long, just nature I guess. Rio7
We got one when I was a kid to breed some heifers. We got him from an old guy in Texas that was in WWII. When he got back from the war, the Longhorns and some goats were what he had waiting on him, everything else had died out.
We could sell the calves straight off the cows and if they wasn't colored up too bad, they fit right in with the Simmentals.
