[QUOTE="A.J., post: 1285071, member: 13664"] If you can I would recommend keeping him quarantined from your others for a few days to make sure he is ok and doesn't bring in sickness in to the rest of your calves. Any of the major farm stores should carry the wormer you would need. Do you have a headgate? If you do I would probably see if the vet could come out and castrate him for you and maybe advise you on a vaccination/health program that would work for your goals with him and the other calves. If you don't have a headgate I would take him to the vet. Even a calf that size could make for a rodeo without some handling infrastructure in place. It's good to build a relationship with your vet for future needs. [/QUOTE]
