He needed his hoofs trimmed. Darted him then tied him to the fence and worked on his feet. At 75 years old "me" it is getting to be tough.

I think it wore us both out. It is amazing how tough the hooves are. His were so bad they were curling back into his foot. Did as much as I could and will probably have to do it again in a few months. Normally around here they wear them down pretty much but his seem to grow more than normal. If I didn't want to use him as a breeder I would get rid of him.

Those are some nice looking horns. Looks like your efforts are producing great results.
