[QUOTE="Ojp6, post: 1287987, member: 23608"] I think that's a common theme among traders. An old trader told me if you band them, wait 5 days and cut everything off below the band, and then cover it with pine tar, you can slip them on a set of big steers about half steers and half late cut Bulls and get them sold. I've never done it myself. When we banded big bulls the biggest problem we had was tetanus, I think your supposed to give them something for that a couple days before you band them. As long as the swelling doesn't get any worse you should be fine. If he starts having trouble getting around or knuckling on his back feet you're gonna want to get ahold of a vet. [/QUOTE]
