Anyone having issues with pinkeye this year?
We have a bad case of it in the herd. About 7 (now weaned) calves and 3 cows. We'd heard a few neighbors had bad cases a few years ago and the cows seemed resistant to LA200 so they recommended us going straight to Draxxin. We're on our second bottle of the stuff and should probably start investing in it at this rate. We had been putting the Shut Eye patches on the bad cases but last night we decided to go ahead and just patch all of the calves with even a lick of it and give them now their third dosage of Drax. If it doesn't get better after this, vet will be called out.
I went to the local feed and supply store to get the patches and the owner was telling me he knew a guy who would put three shots of LA300 in a triangle formation right around the eye. Said it would swell shut for a few days and magically be healed. I figured it did the same as the patches. Any one else hear of any "miracle" fixes? Not looking for any voodoo medicine/advice, I just like to hear stories, haha.
