The neighbor lady had a Charolias (sp) bull calf she never had casterated and it grew up to be a really good looking bull, but she could never keep it in. No regular fence could keep it in. One fall we had our cows running the stalks and her bull kept coming to visit them. I finally got it separated and in our barn. We had a stock rack on the back of the pickup that was about 6' tall when the cattle rack was folded up so I backed the pickup with stock rack up to the barn preparing to load this bull. I walked the bull up the chute and when it got in the pickup it went right up over the top of the rack and lit in a pile on the ground beside the pickup. It was an awesome sight for sure. I thought it'd killed itself but it got back up and I ran it back into the barn after some coaxing, of course. After it was in the barn again I tied some cattle panels across the top of the pickup rack and re-loaded the bull. That pickup a-rockin-and-a-rollin with a 1500 pound bull romping around back there. I took the bull back home and unloaded it in her barn. Next day it was back so I put it in the barn and called her to tell her her baby was back here. That next Saturday she had someone come with a livestock trailer and it was hauled to the sale barn. I don't know if it sold as a breeder or as a baloney bull, but at least it was gone. Jim
