Use an elastrator. The rings that you would use for bull calves look like green Cheerios. Make sure the bull is restrained before you do this procedure, either by having someone help you hold the calf to the ground, or have him retrained in the squeeze chute with his head in the headgate so he doesn't move around excessively on you. Make sure you can count to 2 before slipping the band on; squeeze the elastrator (which'll widen the green band), slip the band over the testicles (making sure you have 2 testicles inside the band and not one or none), then release pressure on the handles of the elastrator when the band is on the neck of the scrotum (where the epididimus tubes are located) and not directly squeezing the testicles, as this would be very painful for the bull. Pull the elastrator out of the band now on the neck of the testicles and your done.

The process of banding the testicles of a bull is called "castration." It is typically performed by tightly applying a rubber band around the base of each testicle, cutting off the blood supply. Over time, the testicles shrivel and eventually fall off. This procedure is commonly done for the purpose of population control or to manage certain behaviors in livestock. It is important to consult with a veterinarian or trained professional for guidance on how to properly perform this procedure.

What is the castration of cattle called?
Castration. If you're putting a small rubber band over the bull or bull calf's testicles it's called "banding." If you are removing the testicles by knife it's called "cutting." If you are removing the testes with a Burdizzo or an emasculator or any other instrument that crushes the epididimus tubes of the testes, it can be called "pinching."
How long can you wait to band a baby bull after being born?
It should be done as soon as conveniently possible, but as long as the testicles don't become too large for the band or the bull isn't too strong to fight you off (depending on you're method of banding), any time is fine. The only difference is the amount of time the steer would have to grow differently.
How long does it take for the testicles of a bull to fall off?
They shouldn't fall off to begin with, so why are you asking?
How old should the bull calf be before you put a ring on the testicles?
There is a bit of debate among cattle producers when the best time to band bull calves. Some prefer to do it when the calf's less than a couple weeks old, others prefer to band at weaning to take advantage of the extra growth that they get if they leave the calves intact until weaning time. This can be for either dairy or beef calves. So it's up to you when the best time is best.
How do you band a young bull?
The method of banding depends on the age of the bull calf. If the bull is very young (less than 4 weeks of age), you can use an elastrator with the small green rings on the bull. The bull calf must be restrained and on its side with one leg held up before you can do this procedure. The elastrator has four prongs that, when the handle is squeezed, spreads apart stretching the green ring. Do this over the bull's testicles until you get right up to the neck of the scrotum past the testes. Release the elastrator and remove the tool, leaving the green ring at the neck of the scrotum.

Where did mountain oysters originate?
Mountain Oysters were first sampled when a redneck decided to pleasure a bull in the 1900's. After the bull died, the redneck decided to eat the bull's penis and testicles. He found the testicles to be delicious and recommended the idea to his inbred friends, whom also enjoyed bestiality. The tradition continues to this very day. I mean, you did know that mountain oysters were bull testicles, right?

Only band if the "baby cow" (more proper term being a calf) is male or a bull calf. Bull calves should be banded right after birth, or at around 2 months of age.
