Callicrate Wee Bander
Callicrate Wee Bander
Introduced in 2011, the Callicrate WEE Bander is the only high-tension bander available for castrating newborns. Achieving adequate tightness is the single most essential requirement in reducing stress, according to animal welfare experts like Colorado State University animal science professor Temple Grandin. Can be used on calves, kids, and lambs. When stretched, the WEE Loop opens to approximately a 1-1/2 in triangle. If the testicles fit, it works.
The WEE normally works well on calves up to 6 weeks of age. Castration with the lightweight WEE Bander is effective and bloodless and requires no manual cutting or crimping of the loop. Can also be used to dock tails on sheep and for removing small horns.
