[QUOTE="KNERSIE, post: 538595, member: 4353"] This will help with selection to avoid eye problems [url=http://cattletoday.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=5&t=36508&p=395882&hilit=hereford+eyeset&sid=2755501bfb6c5bd02b2a5de904ff6259#p395882]viewtopic.php?f=5&t=36508&p=395882&hilit=hereford+eyeset&sid=2755501bfb6c5bd02b2a5de904ff6259#p395882[/url] ANother thing to remember when vaccinating with piliguard is that animals being vaccinated for the first time need a booster shot 4 weeks later to get better immunity. It doesn't say so on the enclosed leaflet, but after I had my vet contacting the manufacturer they suggested a booster 4 weeks later on calves while prviously vaccinated animals just need a yearly booster. From my experience you need to vaccinate well ahead of the fly season to prevent an outbreak. Once you've had the outbreak you're going to doctor many eyes in the next month or so. The best treatment I've found so far is Curaclox DC which is a dry cow anti mastitis intra mammary injection with the active ingredient of cloxicillin. If you treat early one treatment is usually sufficient, if you don't catch it early a shot of long acting oxytetracycline does wonders in combination with the Curaclox. [/QUOTE]
