Thanks guys. She's going back to her new/previous owners this week . I'm SO sad. I'm going over to visit her every day this week and when she goes home I'm coming with to meet her breeder and see where she lives. My leaders and the people who did this last year said it is a really nice place. It is a dairy farm owned by a couple who really care about the animals. I plan on visiting her whenever I have a car free for the day since it's several hours away. I was planing on doing a beef project next year but since I can barely handle this there is no way I could handle auctioning one off. If Nuria gets pregnant next spring I think she can come for next summer too!

So sad to hear Nuria will be going back... she is bigger then Jackson i think.. just a tiny bit, that two days older must mean alot they are good pics, looked like a good show.. i didnt think the brahma bull was THAT big, but he was very nice looking.. its cool theyd have a bull in a petting zoo.. he mustve been nice and docile, i agree beef is harder, better, but harder. I hate it.. but love it at the same time.. now i have my own steer its not as hard, but, still REALLY hard, i miss the steers so much. I am breaking in 'Marcelle' at the moment, he is a murray grey steer.. going to show then slaughter end of october.. will be very sad.. Jackson will be sad to lose his play mates too.. Im so sorry you will lose Nuria.. you really should go buy yourself a steer to train and ride! Its a pity you wont end up buying Nuria like you originally planned.. good luck with maybe keeping her or getting a new steer of your own! Hope you will still see us on Ridingsteers... or anyone else interested in any cattle... www.ridingsteers.com come chat on our message boards. Well Seyas!
Lauren... poor Nuria

Whyy did she have to go back

[Suki Wingy]

I think I tried to explain it in all my threads about her. "We have a deal that we buy them now, and sell them back at the end of the summer. They live at his farm and hopefully get pregnant so we can take them back to live at the 4-H farm next summer too." It is the only way that I could have a cow. I just thought it would be the whole summer, not just a month. It's really hard to deal with but I know I can go and visit her any time that I have access to a car for a day.
