What wormer do you recommend to use on 500 to 600 pound calves that i just took off of cows to wean. I usually use a pour on ivomec wormer on my big cows but was looking for some ideas on these calves that I am just starting on feed. thanks :help:
 
I prefer the injectible versus the pour on. It seems to do a better job. I have the pour on and use it at times tho.
 
we have used the pour on twice a year and we just had a heifer get tested for coccidia and the vet said she had 40% worm eggs and we just wormed her in september so we are going with injectible this spring. we did put out a safeguard wormer block and we actually saw some worms that looked like a reg. earthworm in one pile so the block did more i think than the pour on. we also treated the whole bunch for coccidia in their water for 5 days.
