redrobin - 3/31/2019 18:30 Jim I like Herefords. Hereford will retain more testicals than other breeds . No big deal. I’ve castrated my fair share of calves. I worked a set of my home raised calves from Nebraska genetic HH bulls and had s retained testicle. I don’t see than when I turn out bulls from other breeds. I’m not saying that’s always the problem. Sometimes idiots push one nut up and band them that way intentionally. Must be due to banding. As I said above, when cut by my vet at about 6-12 weeks there has never been a problem finding or removing two testicles per animal that I can recall. If it is a problem banding then go to cutting, imho. |
