Decided that I'm going to castrate the non-recorded male twin lambs this year, to give me more marketing and management options. I don't particularly like rubber ringing lambs and certainly don't want to do that over lambing.
The plan is to gather them field by field after lambing and I was thinking burdizzo could be a good option. Used them years ago on calves a bit and remember seeing them used on blackie lambs at marking time when I was a student but never used them on lambs. How do folks get on with them?
