[QUOTE="Anonymous, post: 17557"] Can you wiggle or move them or are they afixed tightly? If they're loose they are scurs and will grow but not usually to a very significant degree. If they're tightly attached, that's horns. I'm no expert on dehorning but the common methed for 2-3 inch horns is scooping them out. If you're not experienced at it get a "good" large animal vet to do the job. dun > I have a 6 month old Dexter and > when I purchased her from the > breeder they told me she was > dehorned - they used the paste > method.
