Well strange as this may sound I figured out that Mikey is that calf that did not have a mother. Here are updated photos of Mikey and Murray in the light of day. The other photos made Mikey look like a Devil calf.
Update: It has been suggested that Mikey might have been a twin. It would make sense since no cow would claim him and he was quite small. But it still does not explain who the momma is

Well it has been a few months since my last post, but here is the latest update:

Murray is now 6months old and is completely weaned from bottle and is thriving with the other weaned calves that we have.

Mikey is 5 months old and is also weaned as well. He is a very docile bull and doesn't like to get into what I call "Normal cow games."
The two of them will stay together until Mikey is big enough to go into the pen with the other 4 bulls that we have. Murray will be joining our other pet Steer Waldo and the 3 that we are raising for 'Freezer Camp.' At least that is the plan at the moment.
