[QUOTE="bigbluegrass, post: 1646771, member: 15537"] I haven't had a case of pinkeye in my little cow herd in over 10 years. When the cows got pinkeye last time I was not feeding any mineral. The year after I had the last outbreak of pinkeye I switched to a mineral sold at Southern States. The formula for that mineral was changed in the last few years and it is now made by Cargill. I was a bit frustrated that Southern States quietly changed the formula, so I switched to another mineral this year. I went with Vita Ferm. Most of the summer I have been using the VitaFerm Heat. The last 2 weeks almost half of the herd has had pinkeye. What do you think, is the mineral use a contributing factor or is this just a coincidence? [/QUOTE]
