i have a couple of 7 weight bull calves that i want banded. my bander only goes to about 4 weight calves. my vet (according to his assistant) doesnt band calves that big. i dont know why, and didnt ask.
anyway, i am considering buying one of the XL banders that according to the literature will band up to about 750-800 #s. has anyone used one of them enough to make a recommendation either way with it?
i dont band much at all, so i want to know what some thoughts are on banding at this time of year. i am in the south and it is getting warm down here. the highs now are around 80, but by the time a band fell off, it is going to really be hot.
i have given a tetanous shot already and will boost it.
thanks
