My steer has a ring worm on his face and some warts on his butt. However, im not to worried about those this early in the year, but i am worried about this fungus type thing on his front two legs. The smaller one formed since ive had him ( 2 weeks ) and the other was there when i got him, and has grown since then. Ive never seen anything like it, i thought it was a ring worm at first but now im thinking othe wise.
Please help.

Looks like a callus from being on some hard dry dirt/cement or reaching under a fence. It should go away if you change his environment or put up a low hot wire around his pen.
