Goatmom, there's just been an article on another site with pictures for debanding horns.You evidently clip the area around the horns, and put elastrator bands below where the skin & horn meet. This works on any size horn, & any age over about 3 mos. for best results. The bands cut off the circulation to the horn, & the horn eventually breaks off. You need to do this after fly season. I am going to try it this winter. It has to be better than burning!!
