    New type of bottle

    I have a few of these. Older models. Don't have the handle or the vent. That's really nice! Only thing I have had issues with is cleaning in the nipple. Maybe the newer ones are better.

    Enlarged navel

    Good catch! Glad you got on it. Keep a close eye on that calf. I never assume the first treatment will lick it. Keep us posted.

    Enlarged navel

    No pictures for me either. Have you got it caught and gotten hands on it? That will tell you a lot usually.

    Dehorning questions

    Wow that's interesting. You used the dehorner you showed us yesterday? Was it hard or awkward to do? Looks like it was effective.

    Dehorning questions

    I was wondering that. I only have 1 experience with it on our 3 month old heifer who had very small nubs. I was surprised when she scooped them honestly. They were plenty small for just a hot iron dehorning which she used to cauterize after scooping. Being it's my only experience with it I can't...

    https://www.dehorning.com/dehorning-methods/barnes-or-gouger-dehorning "A Barnes dehorner is a hinged, closed set of sharp scoops which is placed over the horn against the base and surrounding skin. Opening the handles forces the cutting edges together, slicing through the skin and under the horn."

    Dehorning questions

    We haven't had any horns to deal with in years. We got some jerseys and the calves were in need of dehorning. Also a graft holstein came with horns. The first jersey calf was taken to the vet because I didn't want to use paste in flooding rains so she was bigger (3 months or so) when she was...

    Dehorning questions

    We did that years ago. Works well but does takes a long time. Seems painful far longer than standard dehorning. Have used it on goat scurs also. We used 2 bands because there were a few times one band would break from itching. We put duct tape on the bands to hold them in place until they sink...

    Pink eye

    Oh dang! Hope you heal up quick. Wasps are a HUGE chute problem around here. They are a constant battle. When I bought an upgraded chute the dealer couldn't believe I was asking about holes being all over it and what they are for. I explained if it wasn't a necessary hole it needed to be filled...
