[QUOTE="randiliana, post: 605429, member: 2308"] It isn't that dairy bulls are necessarily different than other bulls, but that they are bottle fed. Beef bulls that are bottle fed are just as dangerous. To dehorn him, I would get your vet, or someone else that is very experienced out and have them do it. You can paste them (if they aren't too big) or cut them off. At 4 months old having them cut off would probably be the best. They will still be pretty small, so they shouldn't bleed too badly, and it shouldn't cause him too much stress. We've cut them off 6-8 month old calves with only a little blood and very little stress to the calf. [/QUOTE]
