[QUOTE="farmerjan, post: 1571623, member: 25884"] Let me state that I LIKE horns on an animal.... always have. BUUUUUUUTTTTTTTTTT. All it takes is an animal swinging it's head around, just for a scratch from you, and catching you unawares.... and you can lose an eye or get a real bad "rap" in the head. I had an older jersey cow, that I bought with horns, and she was a very sweet dispositioned cow. Wore a cow halter, I could milk her in the field if I wanted, followed when I called and headed to the barn. She accidentally caught me while putting her head in the manger as I went to catch hold of her halter to clip her tie chain. I had a black and blue bruise for weeks. It was not her fault, I was just in the wrong place as she went to put her head in and I was leaning down. If the heifer is dehorned, then it is better to dehorn him too; better for both. [/QUOTE]
