[QUOTE="SRBeef, post: 803648, member: 7509"] Greg, Pinkeye is obviously spread by flies. Once it gets in a group it can be spread by that groups local fly population. I think fly control is key in addition to all the other elements you suggest. Besides the nutrition, mineral, etc should be a given anyway. The spring shots may be a big factor also. However once it gets started, even in a neighbors herd flies will spread it. I am a strong believe in the rubs with the dangling things in a path to water etc where they must pass a couple times a day and keep the rub doused with the diesel/permectrin mix, especially after a heavy rain. jmho.
