[QUOTE="Buck Randall, post: 1706950, member: 38590"] There are boluses and gel tubes. I recommend the boluses. They have a slow release formula that lasts for 12 hours, whereas the gel is quickly absorbed and gone. Most dairies I work with give a bolus to every cow right after calving, and another 12 hours later for high risk cows. If there is any dairy in your area, these shouldn't be too hard to find: [URL]https://www.pbsanimalhealth.com/products/bovikalc-oral-calcium-boluses?sku=13140-1&gclid=EAIaIQobChMI09_J6Kq08wIVIHRvBB06dgApEAQYASABEgKpz_D_BwE[/URL] Note that they do not fit in a standard size balling gun; you'll need to get one made specifically for calcium boluses.
