I know we have some who have had a lot or experience in handling bulls. I have been around bulls for over sixty years and have never had a bad bull but treated them with the same respect as the other cattle although giving them a bit more room than I gave the cows.
A year ago I bought a two year old registered Angus bull from a fellow who had bought him to breed some heifers. He sold me the bull because he had several other bulls and did not need him. The bull was very gentle. He became playful and the issue is he may still be just wanting to play. I do not like this!
A couple weeks ago I was working some calves and in separating them he wanted to gently push me around with his head. I struck him in the nose with my fist and got out of his way with no incident.
Last night he got out of the pasture by me leaving the gate open. With a garden rake I drove him back into the pasture but he would step sideways and appear more aggressive than I like. I got him back in with no other incident.
My question is will be become aggressive and should I give him a sharp blow in the head with a stick when he wants to be playful or stubborn. I can tolerate him if he does not get any worse but I want to make some change in his behavior.
