[QUOTE="ChrisB, post: 729024, member: 122"] I don't really have much to add to that. Too many people (myself included) wait and see if they will get better on their own or with a shot of LA200 and then when things aren't looking good they call the vet and expect to see a rapid recovery when the animal is too far gone. And as I said, I'm as bad as anybody. If you do get the vet out make sure you pay attention and ask a lot of questions even about other cows or potential problems, most vets I've dealt with are more than willing to help educate you. I've even had a vet walk me through procedures the first time or two they came up so I could do it my self in the future. If I haven't had the vet out all year and something odd comes up I am more willing to give him a call just to keep in touch and give him some business. But on the other hand if I called the vet out everytime a cow is limping or a calf has a snotty nose there is no way I would make any money. [/QUOTE]
