[QUOTE="townfarmer, post: 1321139, member: 9305"] That's the plan is to use polled Devon genetics. Unfortunately a lot of polled Devon are heterozygous polled. I'm hoping I wont have to do too many after this. If I thought that de-horning was going to be a regular thing for me I'd definitely invest in a banding device. I'd heard mixed reports but good to hear you've had success. I've heard similar theory to that from a research study based on cortisol levels in calves post de-budding and de-horning. The results indicated that the older the calf the greater the effect of local anaesthetic. I'm sure that legislation will be coming here as well. In some European countries it needs to be performed by a vet. Thanks for the replies Andrew [/QUOTE]
