They do grow on you-I had a red with white feet born 2 days ago a bull I’m going to keep for awhile just because .....

I had it real bad a few years back I went to the doc got the shots did nothing-that was miserable lasted the whole month of July -it was poison Ivy with pustules filled with clear fluid-nothing worked but time that is the worst I had it and have never had it again Now I wear pants in summer...

Excede works better and lasts a week

Yeah sucks bad way to start a rainy dreary day

The Vet is the one who told me to use these 2 drugs, I have used them in the past with no issues-You can't use the Dex more than twice though, but they can be used together, and the heifer is dead-

Probably be dead within a few days, I had one like this a few weeks ago, about the same age, holstein though, and even with with isolation and extra care it didn't make it. It was weaned already, but I figured it had gotten the bug they sometimes get, got weakened, so I put it on antibiotics...

could be worms, hardware, could honestly be alot of things-I'd try worming him first see if that helps, that would be the easiest answer

I had 2 cows calf with twins-bull and heifer this year, and I haven't had a set of twins born in 5 years. Last set was twin heifers-I think sometimes freaky things just happen-
