[QUOTE="dcara, post: 888450, member: 473"] Banded some bull calves at weaning in Dec. I've got grass and hay and so don't want to sell them until March or April. Around the 1st of Feb I need to put them with the weaned heifers while I do some fence replacement which would be about 7 weeks after banding. Years ago when I asked, the vet told me bull calves were still "armed and dangerous" with "in tract" semen for up to 3 months after banding. Seems to long to me (since I want it to be shorter right now). What do you folks consider a safe amount of time for a steered bull calf to be "unarmed"? [/QUOTE]
