    It's best if you leave the head in a bucket of water to rot until you can pull the horns off, only takes about a week in this heat. It takes a lot less boiling when it's rotten. Put some laundry powder in the water when you boil it as well since a lot of fat will come out. If you boil the horns they will shrink and lose their colour, can also crack at the bases.
