[QUOTE="fatcattle, post: 926611, member: 18129"] I have a friend and neighbor who quit using mineral about a year ago. He ai'd 100 heifers about a month ago, I did 150. We ran both sets through my pens and chute. All cattle received the same shots, were treated the exact same way. Needles were changed every 15 head. He got busy in hay season and didn't check them as well as he could have. Last week I helped him treat 9 with foot rot and 13 with injection site infections. The infections ranged in size from baseball to one the size of a basketball. I have no injection infections and one case of foot rot. Both sets of cattle are on similiar pasture. The only difference is I have kept out mineral and he hasn't. To me it makes mineral look cheap. [/QUOTE]
