I know guys who do this to deer skulls they are setting up for an Euro mount.

Bury it in the ground antlers out and let nature clean off the bone.

@suffolkowner @OldSolduer yes my cattle are pure bred (many registered) Dexter cattle. My sheep are North Country Cheviots and North Country Cheviot-Romney Crosses.
Irish cattle and Scottish sheep. Don't be praising England on my farm, these hooligans will beat ya.

What made you decide to go with purebred over non purebred and Dexters in particular?

I selected Dexter cattle in 2013 when I could only rent a run down 10 acre hayfield to start. Dexters are the smallest cattle breed and put on weight easy. So hence Dexters.
By keeping the breed pure, it gives me an extra market to sell registered stock (through CDCA). Unlike the USA, Canada has very high standards for livestock breed purity (the Canadian Livestock pedigrees act).
Dexters you have to be careful. The bulls can breed any other breed and results in very easy calving. If you breed almost any other breed bull to a dexter, your probably going to have to pull the calves. I pride myself on running a genetic line that has no issues calving and thrives on almost anything green.
I get lots of compliments on how beautiful our Cattle are from mainstream beef producers and the uneducated. Our farm runs on a healthy plants from well managed soil (needs bacteria and fungal NOT chemical fertilizers) feed healthy ruminants which leads to healthy people.

I can't figure out how to resize our pics otherwise I would show you our cattle on here. @OldSolduer has seen my stuff on FB. Feel free to drop by my callsign (Rick Waechter) on FB and have a peak.

I compost the cattle skulls in wet manure for 2-3 weeks, then pull out the skulls, remove the horns before they get destroyed and then rebury in wet manure for another 2-3 weeks. Then power hose them clean (bovine skulls have very complicated sinuses and skull cavities), sun dry them. Then die them and/or attach the horns, voila, decorative piece.

Do you sell online ?

 

[ArmyRick]

Do you sell online ?

Might soon. I used a few skulls, hides and extra meat (fewer customers post Covid) to pay my hay and trucking bills.

 

[ArmyRick]

On the note of hides, if you have never fleshed out a cow hide, you have no idea of how much stinky exhausting fun your missing out on.

 

[ArmyRick]

Lemme talk to Mrs ArmyRick's wife and see if she can sort out pictures to post online. She has a Bsc in Comp Sci from York (Communist) U and is much better at the tech shit than me. Yeah, my wife graduated from like the most commy, left wing university out there.

I've never done any hide work on any animal. I've done lots of gutting, skinning and butchering though.

Meanwhile, at Simon Fraser University - my alma mater

So this past week, I knew my words would come to haunt me. I say things on army.ca that rattle people and get them fired up. Well army.ca takes its moderation seriously.

I was sleeping peacefully under my star wars blankie, when suddenly a moderator pulled up with a baseball bat in hand to set me straight....

I hid under my blanket like a kindergarten kid having a nightmare of having to recite the alphabet publicly. The moderators have found me...oh my.

Who was this moderator that showed up at my farm to adjust my attitude?

Stay tuned, kids. Same Rick channel, same Rick time. (As soon as I can get the photo uploaded, the mystery will be solved)

If it makes you feel any better I live in constant fear of the day G2G will make the eight minute drive to smack me upside the head over a post. Though a guy who has to fit in the front of a helicopter can only be so intimidating in person.

I'd be more afraid he was drooping something from a helicopter, especially now that you slagged him off

The tall one is you? Things really are different on the farm......or were there 'special' fields I wasn't allowed to see??

 

[brihard]

We didn’t even get introduced to the pup.
