I recently bought a $6,500 registered Black Angus bull, excited to improve my herd. He looked perfect—strong, healthy, great genetics. But once introduced, he ignored the cows entirely, choosing to graze alone. Weeks passed with no interest in breeding. Frustrated, I called the vet. After a thorough check, he assured me the bull was healthy, just likely young and inexperienced. He gave me pills to feed the bull daily. I was skeptical, but within two days, everything changed.
The bull went from uninterested to unstoppable, breeding with every cow—and then broke through the fence to my neighbor’s herd! The transformation was shocking. My neighbors weren’t thrilled, but I couldn’t help being impressed.
Out of curiosity, I tasted one of the pills. It was minty—like peppermint! This whole experience taught me not to give up too quickly. With a little help, that bull turned out to be the best investment I’ve ever made.
