Calf fries and lamb fries are big with some folks out here in The Far West. You take the animal and hogtie it, brand it, vaccinate it, ear tag it, and cut away those parts that make it male. Those are then roasted in the branding fire "until they pop." Supposed to be good eatin'. Not exactly my idea of a good meal, but some folks like 'em.

Yes, sheep are branded as well as cattle. Exactly how I don't know, as the fleece would result in a "hair brand."
