I have scooped horns and don't mean this to be a PETA sounding post and I'm not being critical of you. I know dairy cattle are bred for milk production and horns are an afterthought.
I don't know of anything that has ever affected me the way that use to. I have never done anything to an animal that made me feel worse than scooping horns and I will never do it again. I won't run any horned genes to keep from having to do that now.
Have you ever tried burning the base? We did that for a while and it worked really well. I have scooped horns and don't mean this to be a PETA sounding post and I'm not being critical of you. I know dairy cattle are bred for milk production and horns are an afterthought.

Have you ever tried burning the base? We did that for a while and it worked really well. Yea I have burned them and put paste in them when they was calves. But I have missed some also. For me it's just as fast to scoop them, but I try to catsh them early. My Holstein is polled. But my Jersey isn't. When I AI. I try to stay polled. But. We don't do it anymore in the beef operation. Same as you we stay polled.
