When to reburn

Well, my first disbudding jobs weren't all perfect. :baby04:
I have one doeling who has a horn growing and a couple of other suspicious looking kids. I burned them about a month ago now. The one horn is stunted but it needs to go.
I will be burning her soon (later today or tomorrow), but would like to know how early they can safely be re-burned after a botched job.
Thanks!

I've always heard to do it as soon as you notice its needed, the sooner the better.

I agree with Emily.... I fought the battle and lost b/c we kept running into time issues with both DH and I being available to be on hand to debud.
