[QUOTE="SRBeef, post: 783677, member: 7509"] I don't know that there is one "best" method for everyone. Mine are cut by my vet at the spring workup in May at about 6-8 weeks old. They heal quickly on green grass and no misses. They get first shots, pour on, eartags, weighed and cut in one trip through the chute. I do not implant my cattle. I sell "natural" freezer beef. My customers do not want hormones in their beef. There is very little difference if any in weight at weaning between ones cut or left intact (as I have done with a couple I was considering using as bulls). Jim [/QUOTE]
