De-horning calves has never been easier thanks to Hornex. Hornex is a unique product containing sodium hydroxide. Hornex comes complete with spatula for easy application and will treat up to 40 calves. Hornex should be used sparingly; a little will go a long way.
If you prefer to de-horn using a burner then it is vital that a local anaesthetic is used prior to de-horning. Adrenacaine is perfect for minor surgical procedures as a local anaesthetic. Adrenacaine should only be administered sub-cutaneously.
