[QUOTE="docgraybull, post: 125009, member: 885"] The advice from Bez is sound and based on experience. Listen to it. If your boss/foreman is concerned with the health of the cattle he will observe you and make sure that you are administering the vaccine properly. If the cattle go down and you don't have neck access, remember that they are covered with skin and subcutaneous means "under the skin". You can give it anywhere the skin is loose enough. Make sure that the equipment works properly. The multi-dose guns are good, in theory, and I have used them from time to time, but generally I prefer the 5cc syringe and a 1 inch 16 gauge needle, and draw (or have a helper draw) the appropriate dose for each cow. It is a little slower, but the 5cc syringe is easier to handle and I'm positive that each head gets the right dose in the right place. Enjoy yourself - working cattle is fun! [/QUOTE]
