[QUOTE="Running Arrow Bill, post: 451496, member: 9"] We're in Texas... ;-) Would recommend CattleMax software. We use the LonghornMax2 version of theirs for our Longhorns. [u]We use:[/u] In Texas:[list][1] Blackleg (Clostridial bugs). Either Covexin 8 or UltraBac 7 [2] Multi-purpose respiratory, etc. ViraShield 6 for BVD, IBR, PI3, BRSV, etc. [3] Brucellosis Vacc (by Vet) for heifers between 4 & 12 mos. old. [4] Vaccinate calves at 3-4 months with repeat at ~205 day weaning. Plus de-worm both times. [5] Entire herd annual vacc in spring. [6] De-worm all animals spring & fall with Ivomec or Agri-Mectin injectible. Sometimes adults in fall with pour-on. [7] Castrate (band) bull calves at weaning that are not sire prospect for registered or commercial cross-breeding. [8] TAHC Testing for Brucellosis yearly, TB Testing every other year by Vet in November. [9] Weigh and de-worm any animal sold before loading up. [10] Spray all animals when worked with Permectin II for flies. [11] Use blue algaecide in stock tanks + "Mosquito Bits" in water for algae and mosquito control. Empty and wash out stock tanks about once a week in spring, summer, and fall (or as needed) and refill with clean water, algaecide, & mosquito bits. [12] We also weigh on digital scale, measure hip height and horn length every time we work an animal as well as prior to sale. Other data include BW, WW, YW, annual weights, breeding records, current photos, and 6 generation pedigrees on all animals. [/list] About all I can think of at moment... :) [/QUOTE]
