Back in August our heifer, Antwonne Elsie Mae, had her first calf, graduating her to a cow. She gave birth to a healthy bull calf that is fifty percent Limousine on his paternal side. When he was named we opted for a name that would allow my nieces to know he would eventually end up in the freezer. The calf was then named 'Lunchbox' because he would end up in lunchboxes in the future. So as Fall turned to Winter our little Lunchbox grew.We decided Christmas time would be the perfect time for Lunchbox to lose his manhood. We left him intact to gain weight from the levels of testosterone while he was intact as the weather turned cold.
