Your bike in front of a gate pics

They are bullocks. Dem's boys. No udders kinda gives it away.

They don't have udders till the are growed up girls and have babies - till then they are heifers, but might have a slight lump in the middle where they were attached to the umbilical cord in the womb. The boys (steers) would still wee from their middle and have more of an obvious hairy protuberance there, even if their testicles have been unceremoniously removed.

OTOH, if you've seen these wee from their middle rather than the back end, I'll concede the point.

In other news, I was very naughty, and parked my bike here. Mind you, it was true, the gate was being used. By me.

Nice old wrought iron gate. I noticed a few of these around this area. The local blacksmith must have had a an artistic streak as all old iron farm gates at home were just boring flat iron without the fancy twists.

I worked on a farm aged 14 onwards.
I live adjacent to a dairy farm.
We live in one of the highest milk yielding areas in western Europe.
The muscle development on those bullocks is quite different.

Observe:

Bullock (no sign of udders despite it's size)

You'll have to explain to that 'steer' why he's got teats.

For context, I was a herdsman for 14 years.
