I don't know if y'all noticed, but that's Glen Beck sitting on the calf.

I've seen a good many cut by old timers, but not the biting them... I'm thinking if you cut 40-50 at a time that's gonna get old.

I used to go to school on Monday mornings with "purple spray" all over me from helping with the gelding and cutting from the weekend.

I agree. I've heard of it before, and obviously this guy was just showing how it can be done.

We use kitchen scissors, and cut the bottom 1/3 of the sack like in the video. We pull each testicle and scrape the remaining "plumbing" with one edge of the scissors because a clean cut bleeds more than a tear.

I always thought they tied a string tight around the balls until they fell off.

That's called banding calves. It's like the rubber band around a lobsters claws. The only problem with that method is that you aren't positive you've captured both testicles. When you cut them, you see and count both of them on the ground right then.

I forget the name of it and I don't know if it's still made or not, but it was a spray can of purple stuff that was used to keep infection away and the flies off. In the 50's & 60's, we went through it by the case. I "lived purple" at an early age!!

I didn't remember the name, but my family felt that purple spray, metholiate, campho fenique and coal oil would cure EVERYTHING on livestock and humans.
