When we were pasture cowboying, our standard treatment rate was triple dose. This was partly due to the chance that you may not find a calf again the next day. I like loading doses (double rate, triple rate for extreme cases) followed by slightly above label usage. Its given me excellent results. Liquimycin I do find is losing its effectiveness, however the only things I ever have need to treat (scours, pneumonia) are better treatable with NuFlor and Micotil. Although we did have a scours run through here last year that was only treatable with Liquimycin.
