[QUOTE="Dohcvtec, post: 1390505, member: 26745"] So a little back story ... we had a steer that we purchased from a farm we had never bought before and since we got him he had a cough . So I had the vet out a couple times and after about 400 dollars later he still had the cough when he would run but no fever and was eating and drinking fine so vet said he would more than likely have the cough forever. Everything was ok but then we switched our hay from another farmer and maybe a couple days later he was bloated really bad and we had to stick him to relieve the pressure. He was fine for maybe 1 week then he bloated up again but not as bad but had to stick him again.. the last time we stuck him he got a 20 cc shot of baytril and he was ok for about 15 days then one morning we went out to do our feeding and he was on his side and barely breathing so we decided to put him down and salvage the meat we could. Now my question is I know the label says you can't slaughter meat before 25 days or so ...would you guys still be okay with eating this meat? We had the meat frozen for about 2 weeks then took it in to make some steaks and other varies cuts. Would hate to have to waste all the meat which was about 150 pounds and also all the effort and money we had into him. He was about 7 months old but was not very big [/QUOTE]
