We have a crossbred steer that has scurs-about 11/2-2 inches long; we know there not horns because they wiggle and are loose. The steer is about 7 months old and we need to remove them before the show in Dec. Any suggestions on removing the scurs. Some have told me to just twist them off with pliers, have them burned, or gouge them out?-I would prefer to burn but have never burnt scurs. I would just leave them on, but I'm trying to avoid problems at the shows-someone complaining they are horns. Should I just leave them alone, and if so has anyone ever had a problem at a show with someone suggesting the scurs were horns? Or will the scurs effect the judge's placement.
