[QUOTE="wbvs58, post: 1444064, member: 16453"] I think what you have is a Dermatophylus skin infection, biting insects will spread it hence those isolated lesions. If you google it photos will show mostly extreme infections but if you look through them and especially around the edges where you see more isolated lesions they will look more like yours. From my memory it is like a cross between a fungus and a bacteria and so will sometimes get a response to antibiotics especially for any secondary infection. [url=http://www.msdvetmanual.com/integumentary-system/dermatophilosis/overview-of-dermatophilosis]http://www.msdvetmanual.com/integumenta ... tophilosis[/url] What Gizmon said is correct as well and it could even be trychophyton. It is all much of a muchness and unless the cow is a bit compromised it is all usually self limiting. Treating like Jeanne suggests will work on isolated lesions. Ken [/QUOTE]
