[QUOTE="catdance62, post: 687659, member: 13173"] We have been succesfully raising dairy goats for a while now and had the opportunity to buy some registered miniature Zebu cattle for an excellent price from some people who were moving out of state. We purchased 4: 1 bull, 1 heifer, and 2 cows. The size of the cattle is good for our small acreage. We were advised by the former owner that we should worm them when we get them home due to stress of the move etc.(THat is also standard practice for moving goats). SInce we do not have a chute or cattle worker set up yet, we gave them shots of Ivermec in the trailer. Ivermec should be given SQ, but IM is all we could manage. IS that OK? I plan to fecal them in 10 days and worm them again if necessary. Also, we have had excellent results in our dairy goat herd by copper bolusing them. SHould we do the same for the cattle? [/QUOTE]
