[QUOTE="Bez>, post: 406140, member: 6007"] My preferred spot is just ahead of the shoulder - fairly high in the neck and above the "break" or point in the shoulder - that way if she jumps forward against the squeeze the shoulder hits first - my hand does not get pinched and the syringe stays in my hand - not jerked out - ending up on the ground. It is one of about three recommended spots for needles. Some folks use another recommended spot high between the shoulder blades for sub Q - OCA / CCA (Ontario Cattlemans Assoc / Canadian Cattlemens Assoc) call this a secondary site - but I find it awkward. There are other methods that work as well - this is simply mine. Try it - if it works - great - if not you can keep doing what you have always done. Sub Q for calves I use 3/4 inch and for cows I use one inch - yes I sink it in all the way. Bez> [/QUOTE]
