Capon operations of the males at the cattle farm

"Food for every ones table and every homes"

                        It takes 5 strong cow hands excluding the dog to neuter a young male cow
                                        (Excluding the dog)


A cattle herd needs only 1 male for every 25 females.   So the rest of the males have to be neutered.  The neutered males gain weight faster but have more fat contents, and this makes the herd more peaceful.  Testosterone rich  males would quarrel with other males. So some of the males were neutered by having blood vessels going to their testes cut from from the outside with a device.

The males resist being made bading and they fight cry or rush out of the pen revolting.  Who would not?

                                       The Brahman stocks are well fed and large





                               The cattle had to be selected, tied and brought down



                                       The rampaging bull or cattle can hurt you



                                      Larry secures the lasso on a young male;s neck


                                       The heifer protects her young and will attack you if she thinks
                                            you that you will attack the calf


                                          The cowhands cuts the blood supply to the testes


                                     The neutered male rushes out of the corral
