[QUOTE="TexasBred, post: 530423, member: 6897"] There are some feed companies that make a wormer "cube". (Texas Farm Products, aka Lone Star Feeds) here in Texas did make one and probably still does. Active ingredient is usually fenbendazol (same as the blocks). If the cattle get the amount they need they probably work well. Larger cattle will probably eat more and they should but treating each cow individually with an injectible or pour on is the only way to make sure they get an adequate dose and even then you're guessing the weight on each cow. Personally I give all adult cattle a dose for 1500 lbs. of bodyweight to be sure. Calves from 2 months up to 500 lbs. get the dosage for a 550 lb. weight. This may be a bit of overkill but better to waste it using it than by keeping what the cattle really needed in the bottle. [/QUOTE]
