Dehorning/Disbudding

Ultra-Scan specialises in calf dehorning/disbudding, saving you time, energy, and manpower at one of the busiest times of the year.

Our 'MPI approved" system is efficient, hygienic & minimises the stress while dehorning calves, with the use of local anaesthesia.

Ultra-Scan use LPG gas burners when dehorning calves between four days and 10 weeks of age. Whilst dehorning calves, they are restrained in our purpose-built calf crates. Our technicians are annually certified by vets by way of a VOI (Veterinary Operating Instruction) 

IHC Calf Scheme calves are dehorned free of charge as our way of supporting this great initiative.
