[QUOTE="msscamp, post: 191408, member: 539"] Are you saying you are using standard doses of antibiotics in these calves milk whether they are sick or not? Before I put antibiotics in my calves milk, I would check the meds and see if they are compatible with milk - and make sure they need antibiotics. I'm almost positive terramyacin is not. I'm also fairly certain that terramycin will bind with the milk and cause teeth problems further down the line. I believe Vicky posted about that, I will see if I can find her post. Found it - the following was posted by Vicky a while back: "Well, as information for both of you, terramycin is one of the tetracyclines, which bind irreversably to calcium, which I think you'll agree is found in milk. Thus it will work somewhat, but less than optimally. Also, it will deposit on forming teeth, causing enamellar hypoplasia, which can lead to broken mouth if the animal is kept." [/QUOTE]
