[QUOTE="Lazy M, post: 989527, member: 19946"] The main points for dehorning a big-horned cow is make sure your headgate is bolted down tight, your saw is sharp, and your iron is hot. I've had to do it often when I've had a cow whose horns were growing back into her head, and its never very fun. Make sure you have a head table, too, don't try tying up her head without a lasso- it wont work. If your using a manual saw, its good to have someone there to take shifts with so you can get the sawing done asap and start cauterizing. BTW- I recommend selling the cow [/QUOTE]
