[QUOTE="farmerjan, post: 1716755, member: 25884"] I agree with the bell, and maybe tipping them back a bit and putting a rubber horn cap or something like they used to use on oxen that had horns. And I would not stop breeding her... use a POLLED bull so the calves do not have horns and let her pay for herself in her retirement. If she doesn't breed back then so be it. I have had a couple over the years that got to live out their life here.... most go but a few get to retire too.... buried my first beef cow with very bad teeth when she got down.... had a 5 + mo old calf on her.... buried my 15 yr old guernsey, and another old beef cow that had done her part..... if she gets a chance to get a rest and then in better flesh, and you are feeding her a little bit to compensate for the bad teeth, then she could raise you a few more decent calves....
