WHY DEHORN CATTLE

Dehorning cattle – including Brahman Cattle – has become a necessary practice among ranchers because of the sole fact that it substantially decreases the risk of injuries to cattle or people. These animals have a higher monetary value as well and are much easier to transport from one facility to another. Cattle should be dehorned as early on as possible because they tend to have a quicker recovery as well as have a much less painful experience. This is so because for the first few months of age, calves have horn buds that are only floating and haven’t “rooted” yet. Having floating horn buds means that they have not obtained a blood supply and are not prone to cause blood loss, wounds and infections. Another term for dehorned Brahman cattle is polled Brahman cattle. In any case, Moreno Ranches works both angles with its cattle. First, by selecting breeding and superior genetics, the Ranch breeds Brahman cattle that are docile in temperament (though, of course, no animal is 100% docile and all relevant security and safety procedures should be followed). Second, by dehorning or “polling” its Brahman cattle. Those with an interest in either dehorned Brahman cattle in Texas and/or dehorned Brahman cattle in Florida should contact the Ranch for more information.
