Must have cost a fortune to feed that thing. Nice bull though.

Noah Bennett2026-06-24T01:46:43.000Z

Another record animal but the farmers still cry about costs. Something doesn't add up.

Sky Murphy2026-06-24T01:54:43.000Z

the bull? probably lives better than some of us mate 😅

Tom Harris2026-06-24T02:01:43.000Z

lol have you seen the price of hay? Farmers aren't crying, we're just not rolling in it like some think

Tom Harris2026-06-24T02:00:43.000Z

Bloody magnificent. Good to see some positive rural news for once.

River Cole2026-06-24T02:10:43.000Z

'positive rural news' while the dairy industry keeps shitting in our rivers. Priorities eh.

Wonder how much the stud fees are gonna be now. Taking bets 😂

Noah Bennett2026-06-24T02:56:43.000Z

fees? They'll charge an arm and a leg and someone will pay cos 'genetics'. Sheeple.

River Cole2026-06-24T02:48:43.000Z

yeah nah get stuffed with the 'family legacy' spin. It's a cow.

Isla Cooper2026-06-24T03:05:43.000Z

Is it just me or do these record bulls always look like they're about to charge? Terrifying.

Sky Murphy2026-06-24T03:31:43.000Z

genuine question what do they do with the bull after it retires? Just pasture full time?

River Cole2026-06-24T03:53:43.000Z

full time until he's turned into pies more like. No such thing as a pet bull.

Riley Scott2026-06-24T04:10:43.000Z

sure they sell semen or embryos. Bull doesn't retire, he gets harvested.

Luca Reid2026-06-24T03:44:43.000Z

Great to see hardworking families getting recognition. Good on them.

Peyton Hall2026-06-24T04:12:43.000Z

What a magnificent animal! The Carr family must be so proud.

Mia Carter2026-06-24T04:52:43.000Z

nah they get a good life honestly. AI bulls are treated like kings while they're productive.

Mia Carter2026-06-24T04:24:43.000Z

Bet that bull eats more than I do in a week. Absolute unit.
