    Foot rot

    :lol: :lol: Of course I would never have considered that possibility - simply because that would not be our method. Have a good one, Bez>

    Foot rot

    Everything you ever needed to know about this can be found in this book: http://www.merckvetmanual.com/mvm/index.jsp Well, you can put it in your chute and medicate. You can open the wound for drainage if you have a real bad case and then medicate. Have you got a book on animal medicine...

    Hydrgen peroxide

    If this is true - and I doubt it - I suspect it would be a highly publicized cure. Which it is not. Never heard of this one - anyone? Bez>

    Choked cow

    If you go back and look through some of my comments on veterinarians you will see that I have always been one to state there needs to be a relationship with your big animal Doc. Preferrably before you have the first animal on the place. A person who is a RESOURCE - not an expense! Why in the...

    lacertions

    If you cannot find the spray he talks about ask for Bleu. I spelled it correctly - there are a ton of knock offs - all do the trick - great wound protection and most of them provide a coat that hardens just a bit if sprayed on fairly thick - keeps the flies away. Good luck - time to go dog...

    Mad Cow Disease

    That is - at this point in time the theory. In absolute truth - not one person or scientist can actually and definitively state with complete surety - what causes BSE. Lots of theory and some of it may prove out - but no conclusive proof. Yet. Bez>

    Vaccinations

    Vaccinations

    No ranch is disease free - if it is that can change in a heart beat. This is getting annoying - some idiot spamming the boards. May not be an Anglo - language use suffers a bit. "diseases" ?????? Bez>

    LA-200 adverse reaction in calf.

    I am not going to bother you with more - but take the advice and get smart - that means schooling. You will find it very valuable - and it will make you a better cattleman. This type of schooling is not classroom and exams - it is hands on and fun - go do it. While you are at it - learn to...

    LA-200 adverse reaction in calf.

    All right - I take a deep breathe and state you need to take some courses - it will make you a far better animal owner / handler / farm doc. You need to learn to read, think and ask - before you act! Now - think about what I said - ALL of that liquid injected into one area takes up a big piece...

    LA-200 adverse reaction in calf.

    Tsk, tsk - I have worked in places that would have fired you on the spot for that. Now, look at the amount of meds 33 cc's is. Then imagine dividing that by three - to make it about the same equivalent dose I would give to you. Then imagine I stuck it in you and gave it all to you in the...

    LA-200 adverse reaction in calf.

    Possible anaphylactic shock? Rare, but it can and does happen. If you had called your veterinarian immediately - he or his staff would quite possibly have had a quick recommendation. While I do not have my "doc book" handy I believe it might have been to administer a dose of epinephrine to...

    Limping Calf.

    Jammed a stick or rock up between its toes. Twisted the ankle in a hole. Cut and infected. Foot rot. All are possibilities. No sense doctoring until you know what to doctor for. You need to catch it - toss it and look at it soonest. Some of these things get pretty bad pretty fast - and...
