I'm going to dehorn m dairy heifers, and they are a pretty big investment so any information on dehorning would be helpful, I have raised a lot of cows but all black angus and no horns so I have never dehorned before, I've seen it done but not sure how to do it exactly.
Questions:
#1 How old when you dehorn?
#2 Should I apply disinfectant to the horns after dehorning (hydrogen poroxide, etc.?)
#3 How deep do you cut down?
.....Any further information or picture chart or tips on this would be great thanks in advance.
