Bottle fed a Black Angus bull. Banded him to make a steer.
Raised him to over 850+ lbs. His name was 'Norman" (City Slickers movie).
He was the family pet. We could go out to the pasture and he would come running at you to be petted. He didn't know how how much strength he had. He would knock you for a few yards. It actually got to be kind of dangerous around him. He wanted to play but it was too much for us.
Took him to the sales. While trying to unload him from the trailer the handlers were beating him with sticks. He just stood there and did not move.
I went in the trailer and told the handlers to leave him be. I rubbed Norman on the head and said 'come on boy'. He followed me off the trailer and into the yard.
As I approached the auctioneer, he said "Wow. he does what you tell him?". I said ...Yup, I can tell him to sit right here, right now, if you want me to! And he will do it.
The look on the auctioneers face was priceless! Heck No, that steer wouldn't sit, all he wanted to do was play and head butt you.

After some research of convert or not, I decided to go ahead, the main reason being that this tractor was a working tractor, not a show tractor (yet). I did keep everything I replaced for the day I do want to restore her to showroom condition.
