[QUOTE="Steve Banks, post: 611111, member: 2328"] I used to band at 4-5 days old but didn't like having to mess with catching and watching the old cow! So, now I band at 5 -6 months old just to be able to use my shute, I've had good luck so far!! I also wean them, give shots and hold them for 45 days and then sell em. I don't worry about weight gain/loss just as long as they stay in good health. I usually avg. between 500 and 600 lbs. for steers and heifers. Thats good enough for me. [/QUOTE]
