A steer is a bull that has been castrated. They won't be starting a family, but they do help fill ours by providing delicious beef for the dinner table.

Registered means an animal has an official family tree (pedigree) recorded with a breed association. Think of it as having a birth certificate and a detailed family history all in one!

A heifer is a young female that hasn't had her first calf yet, while a cow is a female that has already become a mom and is one of the experienced, dependable ladies of the herd.
