[QUOTE="marimus, post: 695608, member: 3924"] The brands should be heated "blue hot" which is that dull glow below red hot. Dun is right in saying to look for the tan/copper color after application of the brand. If its not right, you need to hold the brand on longer. If it takes more than 3-5 seconds to get that color you need to heat the brand hotter. You can read a better description (with pictures) as a downloadable PDF file here: [url]http://www.mla.com.au/TopicHierarchy/InformationCentre/AnimalHealthandWelfare/A+guide+to+best+practice+husbandry+in+beef+cattle.htm[/url] [/QUOTE]
