[QUOTE="elkwc, post: 1836356, member: 22295"] I stated earlier when we sold the calves I would post the results we saw and my impressions. I want to state I feel it is a good product for certain situations. I don’t feel it is a miracle drug. I will likely try it in a few specific cases. We watch our costs so any thing we do or use has to prove it is beneficial in our program. We sold the treated and non treated calves Tuesday. No noticeable difference in gain. The only calf we doctored was in the group that had 12cc applied. We still have the heifers. So will update on them later. At this point I see no increased gain on the treated calves. I feel on flighty calves and calves bought at a sale barn it would be beneficial. Like I was told before I tried it I would likely find no benefit on our docile calves that are used to human interaction. Those who process 20,000 plus every year have seen results similar to ours. So hard for me too justify $4.00 cost of product and an extra trip through the chute. This is just our experience and our opinions. I would encourage anyone considering it too try it in their operation on their cattle and decide if it works for them. [/QUOTE]
