[QUOTE="Runningriverranch, post: 228777, member: 4129"] Thanks all. When I said Nitrogen I was just referring to the nitrogen level from the fertilizer I used. It has P & K too but I metioned it as I also suspect nitrite poisoning as we had so little rain since application and veg was short this season. Seems as though this might affect more animals though? The field that I just turned them out on had had no fertilzer this year as I plan to reseed wth Millet for the summer and they were here for just two days before this happened. On the breed, we have had very good luck with the Highlands for 10 years. Even in Florida they did fine as long as they had shade. This panting thing started in a few last August after we arrived in VA . Same temp as Florida but Fescue. So I am biased in favor of that possibility. Brahma influence is certainly good for heat in Florida and they don't dock you at sale either like in VA. Wth the exception of a case of pinkeye here last summer I have never had to treat a Highland for any malady Luck maybe? If so, I hope that it isn't changing. Thanks again [/QUOTE]
