Sherry, Good luck on your buck and relax. There should be no anesthesia required for the burdizzo method. My bucklings had this procedure done but they were about 6-8 weeks old. Some discomfort, but no flies or other associated problems.
I also had a doe who had a C-section, and she was out for over an hour and not steady on her feet for a good 4 hours. I would like to know what anesthesia is recommended and amount per weight ratio if anyone has that info.
