Hi, I'm a Newby to the site and would like to ask if someone out there can give me some advise please.
I have a year old Heifer not in calf with Mastitis in one quater of her udder.
Our area has been plauged with a lot of flies this year and I think she may have got the infection from this, as the herd has spent most of the year out on the grazing land.
I have been given all sorts of tips and stuff but I am not sure what is the best way of clearing this problem as I have not had anything like this before.
I have given her Penicillin injections but to no avail.
The vet told us that there is nothing much you can do with the problem.
I have also been told that you can put a small tube into the tit to clear this problem, but I do not want to put her under any undue stress if this is an old wife tale.
Can anyone offer me a solution and is it dangerous for her to have this problem?
Thank you for looking at my post anyway look forward to hearing from you.
What's put out for you will not go by you.
