Hello Alll
Due to Winter workload and weather I find myself with three older calves with good stumps of horns. They are too big for dehorner and too small for Vet to saw them off. A friend mentioned using wires for removing them but I have no experience of using them. The calves are maybe 4 months old and the vet said that with wires you have to cut fairly deep and it is a slow job. Any simple solution would be appreciated.
