[QUOTE="AudieWyoming, post: 728981, member: 13669"] Thank You Jeanne. I tried two times last night to write a legible post about knife cut vs banding. You have covered much clearer than what I came up with. However knife cutting requires better management or at least more cattle husbandary experience. I feel most readers looking for advice on this issue would be better off just banding. Ga.prime covered that very well, so I deleted my attempts. All I can add is: Band at a young age. Make sure you you have both nuts, Improperly banded calves are the leading cause of bullers and stags in the feedlot. If there is a better implant for calves than Ralgo I don't know about it. Don't over implant and make sure your cattle are on a good enough plane of nutrition for an implant regimene to benefit. It does not work well for the "starve a dollar out of um" crowd! [/QUOTE]
