yup. we called them rocky mountain oysters when I was growing up. I used to work on a very large cattle ranch when I was a kid and every year come branding time I would help round up the calves and hold them as they got the triple dose of hell..branded, dehorned and castrated all at once.
(When I participated in this activity, I seem to remember that it was a quadruple dose of hell....the fourth one was vaccinating the poor little fellas with those big steel needles!)
They would have a big oyster fry at the end of the day. I was so covered in cow **** and blood I never much felt like partaking but the would tell me I did not know what I was missing.
(I’m surprised the other hands let you get away with no chomping down on a few RMO’s...they’d maybe cut some slack there for the owner’s kids but not anyone else....you were lucky!)
