[QUOTE="farmerjan, post: 1407748, member: 25884"] Honestly, I only buy calves off a couple of dairies that I know their protocol on as far as colostrum feeding. I seldom have a problem with coughing, coccidiosis is the one thing we see and treat accordingly with corrid in a syringe down their throat for 5days, since these calves are also on nurse cows most of the time. I do not treat a calf for anything unless I see it has a problem. I do not give them any antibiotics or corrid or anything as matter of course...ONLY if they have a problem. We have had some problems with coughing in the beef calves when we weaned them and our weather was 20 one day, 50 the next, up and down crazy. They got medicated crumbles in their feed for about a week or maybe a little longer. [/QUOTE]
