Man I have eaten a bunch of squirrels in my life. Used to love squirrel and dumplings, or fried if they were young ones..

We still use fire irons. We use electric de-horner's though. Horses get the freeze brands.

You have no idea how embarrassing it is to arrive at a chemical spill overdressed.

Electric de-horner and hot iron branding. Man I can smell it from here! LOL
All my cattle were polled Black Angus. Didn't have to deal with that, thankfully.
Have used nippers on the young ones and once had a Keystone de-horner about 3ft long for the big ones. Man that will get 'em a bellerin'!

True. Mind you its usually a "Hurry up and wait", so you do have time to see how everyone else is dressed.

One example off the top of my head:
I had caught a 5 lb. catfish at a local reservoir. I went to clean it and got: "NO, NO, NO!!!!"
When we got home she plopped it in a pot, covered it with all manner of spices and then water and boiled it. Called all her friends over. When they got done eating only a few ribs remained. Oh, and the middle of the eyeballs.
