[QUOTE="KNERSIE, post: 1285848, member: 4353"] I've only banded horns on one heifer before, they both fell off in time, but I didn't like the result, it just looked like poor stockmanship. What works better for me is to just cut them off flush with the head with pruning scissors and burning with a hot iron over the wound. On young calves I just use the hot iron, same applies for scurs, but I've found that you tend to get a bit of regrowth in the case of scurs. [/QUOTE]
