BarsepsHmmm...... HP brand? ........ Hewlett Packard beef??
articianI did this throughout my whole childhood. Started in the late 70s, before we had the metal chutes, so the adults would have to rope them and wrestle them down like old-school cowboys. I had to watch this just to see if anythings changed. Looked like he had an electric iron, which is new to me (we still used fire last time I did it), and the one, most gruesome thing the video didn't cover was what you did when you got a male calf.
Interesting though. How antiquated of a practice is this anyhow? It was originally used to identify your cattle so no one stole them, but does that still happen??

siftbotPromoting this video and sending it back into the queue for one more try; last queued - promote requested by chingalera.
calvadosI couldn't answer whether cattle rustling is still big business, but your question reminded me of this Stan Rogers song:
