Hello the campfire:
Another dumb new guy question:
I have cut pigs in the dim past, Sharp pocket knife, cut the cords and splash terpintine on the cut and let him go.
1. Is banding in general a good solution to castration, or is there an advantage to cutting? Also i seem to remember a crusher type instrument we used that you crushed the vas defferins and blood vessals with. Emasculator maybe? What are your opinions in this?
2. How does one do the cutting? Do you do more that throw some sulpher or blue spray (gingen violet) or turpinetine in the cut and will that keep flies awayfrom it? I have never heard of stiching the cut. I know a tetnas shot is a good idea.
Thanks again for the accumulated knowledge here.
