[QUOTE="Alice, post: 221863, member: 3873"] If a nipple hole is so big that the milk runs out of it any larger than the size of an 18 guage needle, I quit using it. I don't have the time or patience to try to figure out if calf is coughing because the nipple hole is too big or if the calf is coughing because it has a respiratory problem. When I had 80 baby holsteins in hutches at one time, if one coughed more than once...like a whole string of "cough, cough, cough," it got a shot, whether it was after eating or not. I'd give the nuflor every other day for 3 days. If that didn't help, I'd switch to a different antibiotic. Sometimes nuflor works...sometimes exenel...sometimes even tylosin. And with that I'd also give it a shot of banamine. And push the microbials after every single shot. Alice [/QUOTE]
