Thanks for the info guys. Maybe it's the I-site.

Have any of you used either of these? I have and one of the 2 are leaving some of my calves stiff legged and lethargic. Also a few cows. First time I used either one and definitely the last.

What did your vet give you? Anything for fever? The best thing I have used for calf scours is spectogard. It's actually for pigs but works great for calves. Never give electrolytes n place of milk.only as an addition. I have had luck with adding a raw egg in there bottle.

We vaccinated 21 pairs Saturday and today I noticed a few cows and several calves walking slow and stiff legged n the back. The 3 common shots they all got was triangle 10,multi min 90 and I-site xp pinkeye. Cows went through the chute and the calves were corralled and we just put them n a...

How good is it? Last weekend my brother and a bunch of other guys were on a bachelor party trip in OKC and went to Mickey mantle steak house and had wagyu steaks. He claimed it was the best he ever had by far. $140 it better be. The manager told them all their wagyu need was from kobi Japan and...

I have been feeding wet barley from beer for 6 yrs now. I pick it up in plastic 55 gal drums. We normally get about 15 a week and feed it free choice. I feed it year around and haven't had a bit of trouble with it. I feed it to a group of 25 pairs normally.

Thanks for all the helpful info. We're going to use an injectable now and use the pour in the fall

My pour on wormer got frozen. Will it still be good to use once it's thawed?

That's ridiculous!!! $400!!! Eff that!!! Sounds like a small animal city vet.Sure hope u can find a better vet to help u out. I have had good luck with Draxxin and Banamine. Resflor gold is good too but requires a retreat after 2 days while I rarely need to retreat with Draxxin not to mention it...

They will all die if u keep treating pneumonia with Tylan 50.

I have dealt with that a few times and they all recovered 100%. Time is about all you can do.

I get 4-5,000 lbs a week and feed it all at once free choice to about 40 head. Been doing it this way for several yrs with no trouble.

They don't do any grading here. It used to be that groups sold quite a bit better than singles bit lately it's been pretty close. I had a little good luck the other day. Back in Dec I bought a 375lb heifer with a slight limp for $360. I thought either she would get better and if not we would eat...
