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. The WEE Bander™ 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. The WEE Bander™ can also be used to dock tails on sheep and for removing small horns. The recovery time after
banding has been cut in half. We have banded close to a thousand wethers with the WEE Bander™ and we can confidently say they don't
go off-feed and we can count on two hands the number of infected scrotums we have had. If in the business of raising lambs or
goats, this is the one tool must invest in. For early castration Newborn to 6 weeks lambs or goats.
