[QUOTE="TexasBred, post: 450210, member: 6897"] Milkmaid, it's not the total volume of liquid you administer to the cow that kills but rather the speed that the fluid is administered. Never killed one myself but know many that have. If anyone plans to use that big needle that comes with the IV set they need to at least pinch it off from time to time. I still like the 18 gauge needle since she's not going anywhere real soon anyway. lol. But a 16 is great too. Hopefully this fellow will get him a good dry cow program together and won't need to give any IV's. Milk fever should be a rare thing on a well managed dairy. [/QUOTE]
