[QUOTE="DaleK, post: 60269, member: 788"] I used it for about 2 years with clear packing tape. About 90% of the calves were dehorned well, the others needed to be redone with gougers. Also have some neighbours who have cow-calf (I'm dairy) and they can't keep tape on the horns so when they used paste they had trouble with it running, some calves blinded and a couple that actually had holes burned into their skulls to reveal brain matter. None of us use it anymore, too much of a pain. I use Lidocaine and a Rhinehart electric dehorner with the insert at about 6 weeks old, takes 10 minutes and it's done right the first time. [/QUOTE]
