[QUOTE="elkwc, post: 1517025, member: 22295"] Jeanne your post is the main reason why I like this forum. You read different opinions and experiences with the same issues. Like I stated in a previous post in all my years I had only seen 2-3 cases of fot rot. And it was in cases of cattle being contained in wet muddy lots. Was always told our environment was too arid too see it except in real wet years. I know for sure you don't see it around here for whatever reason. Then when I started going to west central OK I started seeing it. We have 2 pastures we usually see some in every year. The first case I found was on a Saturday. Talked to the locals at the feed store and among other things LA200/LA300 was suggested. We could buy it at the store so did and gave the cow a dose. Next week she was a lot worse. Then contacted the vet and he suggested Nuflor and we had it. It was also suggested the week before. Gave it and she started improving. Think I may of tried LA300 one more time. Then when I was out of Nuflor one time another vet gave us Draxxin. That time it worked on 1 out of 2 cows. Since then it has seemed to work on all. But have never had Nuflor not work. The latter 2 are the ones used around that area the most it seems. LA200/300 is used by a few. Again it seems we each see different results. One of my vets says it can be in the soil in those two pastures and why we have it there. I have talked to them about the iodine issue and they all say they feel I provide enough. This year hasn't been as bad but also has been drier overall. And the ponds have been dry a lot so they haven't stood in them several hours everyday. [/QUOTE]
