[QUOTE="wbvs58, post: 1831541, member: 16453"] Well Ralphie this is FSA here, if you go back to your first post and read it there was no mention of genital warts there, only warts on the neck. It was in a subsequent post you mentioned the genital warts so I think it is a reasonable question to ask where do you put the wire with penile warts. In my opinion if the wire works on the neck warts it is due to a local effect of the wire rubbing and irritating the warts which then elicits an immune response, a bit like what you get by pulling a few off or crushing some with pliers. A bit of moisture and salts from the cows skin could also produce that blue colour of copper sulphate which is also an astringent on granular tissue such as with warts. If the problem is copper deficiency as you are saying it is not that hard to give copper by injection if you are worried about the absorbtion through the gut. I would like to try it on penile warts if I ever get a bull with them again but I am sceptical that the copper around the neck would work on them. I still don't know what I've got to do to become a FSA, oh, that's right I am already a FSA so I must have done something right. In spite of your arrogance I do appreciate you posting about this, it is always interesting to hear of some of these simple things. Ken [/QUOTE]
