[QUOTE="TexasBred, post: 617452, member: 6897"] If your drawing blood the tail vein is easiest and fastest once you get the hang of it. For administering an IV use the jugular or the milk vein. The tail vein is much to small and it'll take you all morning to give the IV...it will definitely be a slow drip...I usually throw away that big needle that comes with the IV set and use a 16 x 1". This keeps me from adminstering the IV too fast which usually isn't a big concern except when treating milk fever. [/QUOTE]
