My vet uses what I think is called a California bander. She uses it on all ages of bucks with success including some that were 4 years old and were herd bucks for a local dairy. They are working pack goats in Redding now.
I also have a mixed herd of horns/no horns. My crew are all pretty mellow but Maximus is definitely kingpin. He never uses his horns unless he has been physically threatened but even then he doesn't keep after the matter. Dave has met some of my guys and he's seen how calm they are. Even the buckling I got from Dave is very calm and collected even with the girls. Could be the circumstances that affect the behavior.
