[QUOTE="jcarkie, post: 342510, member: 20"] my vet explained to me that, the bigger the animal that is banded the more risk. 1 or 2 days old would be a very small chance of a problem. but the bigger they are the more risk, i had a friend band some at 600 lbs and i took them home and gave them 1 tetanus shot and two died from tetanus. that is when the vet told me give them two shots at 2 week intervals before banding that big. the vet said it is less risky to cut them than band them at that size. i band mine at a few days old and have never had any problems.
