[QUOTE="Anonymous, post: 15643"] Dun, It is my understanding the Only Reason for the shots in the neck are because of the possible discloration or damage to the meat on an animal heading for commercial slaughter. At least that is what my vet has told me, and also the same info from the competing vet, who had to make a visit here last fall. The actual wording from the Vet when I had to do the steer that will be for my freezer was: "It he is heading towards your freezer, it doesn't make a darned bit of difference where he is shot, just get it into muscle, his rump is fine, just get it into him. If he's going to a packing house they want it in the neck only. Pretty soon they will be telling us where in the neck." Can you or anyone else comment on this? Eaglewerks > goes in the neck. Sub-Q, IM, > EVERYTHING. If it says it can go > either IM or Sub-Q is preferred. > And if I forgot to mention it, it > goes in the neck. > dun [email=eaglewerks@hotmail.com]eaglewerks@hotmail.com[/email] [/QUOTE]
