Hi I'm a newbie to this site! I have a three week old Jersey calf that I'm raising on goats milk. I plan on eating him next fall. when should I castrate him? My dh "checked" him a week or so ago and he was'nt ready yet, how long does it take for them to drop? I've raised calves before, but its been a few years and I don't remember.
We let him out into a small pasture for the first time yesterday, he ran in a big circle for a while! jumpin and bucking! very funny! until he saw dh (who always brings him his bucket of milk) and ran to him for food! went right through the hot wires! So next time we are going to stand where he can't see us until he learns about the fence.
