[QUOTE="L&FAngusAcres, post: 1503340, member: 30234"] Have freeze branded for years using 99% alcohol and dry ice. Have just 2 head that still need freeze branded, and didn't want to use all the 99% alcohol for just 2 head. I was going to try dry ice and gasoline for these. Couple of questions: *If using gasoline and dry ice... 1. Do you still spray the hide with 99% alcohol before applying the brand? Or will the brands (soaked in gasoline) interact poorly with 99% alcohol sprayed onto the hide? 2. How long do you hold irons on heifer? They are black and 9 1/2 months old. [/QUOTE]
