Is there an age limit to Burdizzo a buckling? I am planning on getting some Banamine from the vet to make it a little easier on them. Would like to hear from others that Burdizzo'd older bucks. I have three boys, but might hold off on one to make sure my does all get bred.

I don't have an answer, but have you already used this method?
I've asked a few vets and a few goat people and they all band... I really don't like banding.
Hoping someone out there can give some advice on the pros and cons of the different methods.
