[QUOTE="VAStocker, post: 258225, member: 4458"] Thanks for the feed back on the calf Milkmaid. It's helpful to know when treatments work and exactly how they were performed it gives us all a little insite for the next time we are in your shoes. About the temp. it's hard to tell when you have two temp. a high and and a normal all in the same day but my theroy (for what it's worth) is that if temp. coincides with how the calf feels he/she feels better when the temp. is normal and the oppsite when high so you now know that your treatment plan is begining to work. We take all temps. in the morning just because it works better for us to work the sick cattle first and then work the new comers to the farm. Being we have cattle to work every day Mon.-Fri. the suspect cattle that are sick get there temp. taken the same time everyday then you can kinda make a trend of if the calf is getting better or not. As for the nuflor it is great stuff we use it all the time, and I know in my first post I said there is no silver bullets and I still think that but nuflor is pretty close. Happy farming and good luck with your calves. :cboy: [/QUOTE]
