cattle question

Posted by tractormiallis on April 14, 2007 at 20:02:30 from (65.118.236.36):

I dont raise cows, but at what age is it most common to castrate a bull? A distant neighbor new to cattle who has only had cows a few years attempted to desex a bull that was probably a year old and the cow bled to death. I saw it lying out dead and it seemed a waste and irresponsible as it seemed to be too old to do safely on the animal. I would think the procedure need to be done as a young calf only weeks old so as to cause minimal problems and controling the animal
