[QUOTE="Aaron9876, post: 1438026, member: 24778"] I need to band my first calf (2 1/2 month old angus cross). It was a bottle calf i was gifted because the farmer didnt want to mess with it. I've just turned it loose into the pasture so its time to do the deed... I need the rundown on procedure and some advice From what ive read so far i need to vaccinate it several weeks prior to banding which is where i have the most questions. The actual banding part seems quite straight forward. Make sure you get the band in the correct position and that you get both of them, Curious if anyone applies an antiseptic of some sort with the band or cleans/disinfectants prior to applying the band? Also there seem to be two different systems for banding. Given the age of the calf which type would you recommend? [/QUOTE]
