[QUOTE="TCRanch, post: 1352205, member: 24027"] I use either LA300 or Draxxon for Pinkeye but 40cc/LA200 for 800 lbs should be sufficient. Sub-Q on 1 side is fine, 10cc per injection site at least 2" apart in the triangle between neck & shoulder. Always read the label. One dose may or may not, depends on had badly injured/infected. Is the eye ulcerated or just cloudy/watery? If it's ulcerated with only LA200 you may need more than one treatment. I would suggest spraying the eye with Vetericyn when you work him & give him a good blast a couple times a day for a few days after. As far as potentially getting your a$$ kicked working an 800 lb steer - odds are good unless you have him restrained, even if he's dog gentle. Keep an eye out for him swinging his head & taking you out. Do you have a halter? We've successfully worked cattle in the pasture by tying the lead of the halter to the brush guard of a Polaris (or truck, tree, etc), preferably with the cow going down & the neck turned. Plan B is to use/get a dart gun (there's a current thread). [/QUOTE]
