[QUOTE="Lannie, post: 1820115, member: 8202"] I've never done tetanus for knife castration. I heard it was necessary for banding, I guess because of the slow dying-off of tissue and such... but my neighbor (the one that castrates for me) said tetanus would only be necessary if the calf was in a dirty place or there was a lot of "junk" around, and our place was clean enough we didn't need to worry about it. So I didn't. I sprayed for flies morning and night, to keep them off the wound area, and there was no problem. The sac fell off and there was clean skin underneath, and now the hair has grown back and it looks like he never had a scrotum, except for that tell-tale bulge on one side. :cautious: [/QUOTE]
