David in Wales Iam sorry to have jumped the gun concerning your full grown Longhorn.I have just scrolled down and viewed the previous photo of your nice calf.I also was not aware of an English Longhorn breed. Hats off to you for helping to preserve a breed in danger of disappearing. Our Texas type were in danger of dying out when in 1927 the U S government allocated some money to save whatever could be found.They were able to locate 27 animals. The rest is history.Now we have a breeders association and thousands of this great and very durable breed.I must admit that it very difficult to show a profit with our Longhorns due to their leaness.Though The meat flavor is good, on average there is usually only about forty pounds of fat on an eight hundred pound animal.In general they are very gentle and quiet.If I ever find a nasty one she is shipped ASAP.Regards
