With Spring on the way, what does everyone use to worm their herd? Also what other vaccines do you guys/gals use?
Thanks,

We have used Long Range with good results in the spring but it so expensive not sure we can do that every year. We try to do a pour on on yearlings every 60 days if possible. I'm surprised that everybody doesn't worm thier cattle but I always hear from people that we do things different around here.

My guess is it takes more than a few generations to get resistance, but the Safeguard guys here will do free fecal counts to help sell their product...
