Here's a pic of a huisache: After Surmount: We've mostly used the Surmount on smaller stuff (under 6ft) & have had good results as long as there's a good application on all the leaves. It's best to spray late summer (August) & fall.

Extra tools? Who doesn't carry a pocketknife? :lol: AND I didn't say it could all be done in an hour. I said an extra hour. Remember.....you're already penning 'em & running 'em through the chute to vaccinate. ;-) But you're right.....whatever works for you. :) (Besides.....those bull...

$25x100=?? $35x100=?? so it takes an extra hour? $2500-$3500 for an hour of work? not a bad payday. ;-)

$25-$35/head is the same whether you have 1 or 100. it's money left on the table by not castrating. if you vaccinate, then you're already running them through the chute, so what's another minute (if you're slow) or two (if you're really slow) per calf to cut them? and if you don't...
