[QUOTE="El_Putzo, post: 91720, member: 1017"] I've seen our vet use one like that before when cutting 400-600 lbers. I think he basically put the blade between the testicals a couple inches up from the bottom of the scrotum, then squeeze to put a hole thru and pull straight down. It splits the scrotum on the bottom so the testicals can be removed and the scrotum just kind of hangs back together. Vet said calves have less chance of getting infection this way, that's if you have to cut them that old. Normally we cut at birth, but every few years or so, one falls thru the cracks or gets too spunky to be caught. [/QUOTE]
