[QUOTE="Gateboy, post: 1294119, member: 16827"] LuckyP: I've seen your posts about using a burdizzo and cutting off the bottom of the sack for drainage. I've tried that, and it worked well most of the time. Sometimes there would be a calf with his testicles hanging partly out of the cut sack, and he wouldn't really heal up cleanly like a good cut job does. Have you ever tried using the burdizzo and then pulling out the testicles? I've thought about trying that but haven't yet. I agree they bleed a lot less sometimes, and the Farmer's Almanac shows "best days" for castrating animals. Usually on the falling moon, I think. Lots of time, my signs are getting the calves in the pen and having some help at the same time! Thanks, John [/QUOTE]
