RE: DO NOT MAKE PIRATE SHEEP - THE IMPORTANCE OF MONITORING HORN GROWTH IN LIVESTOCK

in #homesteading6 years ago (edited)

Wow! I had no idea! Our sheep have no horns (yet!) Probably a breed thing. I don't cut anything off unless I have to (although we did castrate a young male recently). Here they even tell me to cut the tails off! But that's too extreme for me.

One question though, are there nerve endings inside horns or can you just saw them off wherever?
