[QUOTE="bcox, post: 224661, member: 3650"] Sorry, I didnt finish my thought on preconditioning... If you dont buy them preconditioned you should do it yourself. If you dont have the facilities you can always worm and vaccinate at the sale barn before you bring them home. (That is if you buy from a sale barn) Most places I have been have headgates at the facility you can use if they dont do it for you. Sometime you have to wait your turn but its not hard to pour ivomec on their backs or give a shot under the skin. It seems to be better to do it yourself and avoid any premium for buying them that way. Most of your feedlot buyers prefer cattle that have been wormed and vaccinated. bcox [/QUOTE]
