[QUOTE="jayfarmlaw, post: 476564, member: 7472"] About 5 years ago I got a load of stockers that gave me pink eye fits. Seemed like every RWF or BWF calf was coming down with it. I tried everything. LA200 worked but it was pretty slow. IF you had a really steady hand you could give an injection of penacillin under the first membrane of the eye and try to cover with a patch. The patches never seemed to stick for long. I did try and get them to a place out of the sunlight though. The best remedy I found after spending alot of $$$ and time was......Mortons Iodized table salt. My uncle (in his 70's) heard me complaining and told me to take a handfull of table salt and rub it in their eye. The iodine kills the pink eye and the salt irritates it to flush the eye. Im not a vet but the salt seemed to work faster than anything else. Good luck Jay [/QUOTE]
