[QUOTE="msscamp, post: 328611, member: 539"] Tetracycline is not heavy-hitting enough to treat pneumonia, because there are too many bugs that are resistant to it. You need something like Baytril, Micotil, or Nuflor to treat pneumonia. If your herd has always been a closed herd, you could possibly get away with using a long-acting Penicillin - but I would watch the calves very closely if I went that route, because there are a lot of bugs that are resistant to Penicillin, as well.
