[QUOTE="msscamp, post: 284324, member: 539"] Even if you had had epinephrine on hand, how were you planning on getting it into this steer once he was released from the headgate? Are you going to let every animal stand in the headgate for an extra 10 minutes to see if they have a reaction? I could very well be wrong on this, but I believe that once an animal actually goes down from this type of reaction it's usually too late. There is also the factor that this might not have been anaphylatic shock, so the epinephrine would not have been much help. I admire that you're willing to go to these lengths to take care of your animals, but I'm not sure it's very practical. Just something to think about. [/QUOTE]
