[QUOTE="Hpacres440p, post: 1645648, member: 39347"] Have a 9 1/2 mo old heifer, 40 days weaned (fence-line) and has a buddy 2 year old steer to hang out with. 2 days ago noticed watery diarrhea, penned her to watch closer-noticed blood-took a fecal in-raging coccidia (300k+/gm!). Got her started on Albon blouses, she is perking up after 1st dose, checked fecal on steer and he is only 2-3/slide-basically nonexistent. We’ve had a ton of rain and wet grazing area after 3 months of nothing, so grass was getting pretty short. We’re keeping the two separated until she finishes her Albon and get a recheck of fecal 10 days later-he has a processor date Oct 20-don’t want to screw that up. We haven’t brought any new animals in, but fence line neighbor moves cattle around frequently-he’s got a dead one across the road, I’m watching his calves to see if they start scouring. Is fence line exposure with weaning stress typically enough to trigger a bloom? I’d kinda like to be able to keep this heifer... Grass is getting up again and sun is starting to shine... Thanks.
