[QUOTE="TCRanch, post: 1458503, member: 24027"] Ethical question: Discovered a steer is actually a stag during weaning. It's not visible but you can definitely feel the nut. Elected not to perform surgery to castrate because of the concern of too much stress coupled with weaning. I always provide all health information to the Sale Barn prior to taking any of my cattle in but a lot of locals have told me to just take him in, don't point it out, buyers will automatically either know or suspect because he looks a little bullish. Maybe it's just me but that doesn't seem right. For those of you that buy from Sale Barns, would you know &/or think it should be disclosed? Or do you agree with caveat emptor? [/QUOTE]
