[QUOTE="Anonymous, post: 9395"] I fully agree & understand about selenium deficiency, BUT, I was unclear about the shot you gave. Did you give the COW a MuSe (selenium) shot (1cc @ 200#) 6 weeks prior to calving? I don't understand what the Univ was talking about - taking 3 months to metobolize? A MuSe & BoSe shot only stays in the animals system for 30 days. That's why it is recommended to give the shot within 30 days of calving, again 30 days prior to breeding. We supplement out herd year round with selenium (extra dosage) in their loose mineral. > allow enough time for them to > metabolize it.we allowed 6 weeks > it takes 3 months. retained > placenta is a text book symptom of > this and slow cleaning out of the > afterbirth. it was a very > expensive lesson. certain parts of > usa is selenium defecient in their > soils only 2 couties in illinois > in which i reside in 1.
