I bought a registered Black Angus bull for $6,500, expecting him to boost breeding on the farm. But after joining the herd, he showed no interest in the cows—just grazing and lounging like a pasture decoration. Days passed, and nothing changed. I started to wonder if I’d made a very expensive mistake.
Worried, I called the vet to take a look. After checking him out, the vet assured me the bull was healthy but likely a bit young and unmotivated. He gave me a bottle of supplements, instructing me to give the bull one a day. I wasn’t convinced it would help, but figured it couldn’t hurt to try.
Within two days, everything turned around. The bull became full of energy, suddenly active and focused on the herd. His drive increased so much, he even made his way to the neighbor’s cows through a broken fence! The change was dramatic, and it was clear the supplement had done the trick.
Now, my cows are expecting, the bull is thriving, and the neighbor’s keeping a closer eye on his fence. Whatever was in those peppermint-scented pills, they worked wonders. Sometimes, even the most laid-back farm animals just need a little boost to find their purpose.
