    Heard this several times as advice wondered any truth in it? Only thing I could think of would it be sweating etc would added stress of castration lead to vulnerabilty to pnuemonia etc ? Or are strings stronger or anything like that

    Tale.... of course if the bull is over 6 months he shouldn't be squeezed anyway.
