[QUOTE="Jeanne - Simme Valley, post: 64951, member: 968"] First, if you own cattle you really need someway to contain them for treatment. It can be an old dairy wooden head gate but you need to be able to put your hands on them when needed. Now, having said that, I have a friend who used to get real close with a handfull of SALT and blow or throw it in the eye. They swore it worked. We put ours in a chute & put a halter on them & snug it down. They do not have to be halter broke to do this. We use udder treatment - Today or Tomorrow & squirt it into the eye. Than I use a patch from an old pair of jeans & glue it just along the edge on the top & sides & place over the eye. This way she can see down, but the patch keeps the irritating dust & stuff & sunlight out of the eye. Than we give LA 200 or Biomycin 200. Have never had to retreat. Just leave the patch on till it falls off. Oh, we use back tag glue or K-Mar tag glue - same stuff. [/QUOTE]
