[QUOTE="simme, post: 1647603, member: 40418"] Sometimes I am amazed at the deeply held beliefs some people have in regards to animal treatment. I heard a purebred breeder (He has sold $5000 bulls) say that when he sees an animal that "doesn't look right", he gives it 1cc of Draxxin as a preventative. Regardless of size or anything else. I guess he has the idea to "nip it in the bud". Instead he is building antibiotic resistance in his herd and making a good antibiotic ineffective. In effect "vaccinating" his herd to build immunity to the antibiotic. [/QUOTE]
