[QUOTE="Banjo, post: 1281708, member: 17304"] It could be that his cattle have just built up an immunity to the worms. I don't worm my cattle once or twice a year just for good measure. If they are looking fine, actin fine, doin fine I leave em alone. Of course they are moved to a fresh paddock every day and are not having to lick the ground. On a occasion I'll worm one that may look they may need it otherwise they get left alone. BTW its my understanding that you don't want to kill every worm in a cow or horse anyway. I have heard of people worming horses every time they turn around and then selling them to someone who didn't and they die or get extremely sick because they were so used to being wormed and now had no resistance.
