[QUOTE="SF, post: 102072, member: 1171"] You can band them at any age you can get their scrotum through the band. You will need an EZE Castrator Kit Model T-1. You can get it through valley vet or at [url=http://www.castrator.com]http://www.castrator.com[/url]. They use small aluminum clips to tighten the band down. Need to wait about 10 to 14 days to cut the sac off. I don't bother with the pine tar. Since you are waiting for them to get older, just schedule this procedure during a time of year when flies are at a minimum. I use this this procedure quite a bit. Will probably be using on at least half of my bull calves this year. I usually look to castrate them between 6 months and 1 year. [/QUOTE]
