Sheep Tail Docking Banding Elastrator
The easiest and most common method of tail docking and castration is to apply a rubber ring (or band) to the tail using an elastrator tool. Banding is a bloodless method of castration and tail docking. Band cuts off the blood supply causing the tail/testis to fall off in 7 to 10 days.
