Thanks everyone who replied. Already gave her a fair dose of Vit E, kinda think there is not much hope, always the same with your fav cow is'nt it. Will give her another day, and then will have to do the decent thing.

Hi, got a Holstein cow who is just used to foster calves, but they have been off her now for 4months now, she had twin calves on Monday and was standing for 3 hours after she had them, then she went down and has not gotten up since. The vet has given calcium and phosphorous, but dont think thats...

Thanks Haymaker, thats just what I wanted, and thank you everyone who gave me such helpful advice when I was going through a ringworm scare, which was unfounded. Thanks for all the replys :D

Managed to post the pictures, thank you

Hi, just wanted to put some pic's of the recent bull I sold on here, as I got a lot of helpful advice from people on here, and want to show my appreciation, by adding a few pic's of him, but don't know how to do that on here,as I cant see the right button to click, any ideas.[/url]

Hooray! Hooray! Got the final lab results back for the bulls ringworm, and the last sample he took away 2 weeks ago, as now confirmed dead, and the hair is growing back, so off to the pedigree sales in Perth next week. Still quite a bald patch on one side, but you can see the hairs coming...

Hi, now the bull is healing really quickly, the only thin that is left with rinworm is just a few hairless patches. Before asking vet advice(which always costs) wondered if anyone knew if I could take him to market now(sale next week) I think that as he has been treated with shampoo the vet...

what great pic, absolutely lovely!

I wouldnt even attempt to answer for any of my fellow scots, however my own personal opinion is we will never break away from England as long as we are pumping oil out of the North sea, Tony Blair needs the revenue. We do have our own parliament now, but most of the important decisions are...

Well I wouldnt mind another clear out of villains, country could do with it right now. Love the stories, thanks. Thank goodness divorce has come on since putting someone in a loch. I see you both have Skye ties, fab place to visit, lots of climbers real beautiful mountains over there, getting a...

Great sales at Thainstone market in Aberdeen, always find the local accent hard to understand though. Will take some pic's and post them for you soonish..... I know all about the scots ancestry over there, went to Colorado flew into Denver at the same time the hostage Donald Sutherland was...

Hi,I know Elgin but not sure of Commington. My grandfather was a Mackenzie but its a pretty common name over here. Great story, pity he didnt stay over here, desperate for blacksmiths here now. My gramps was on the Boer war too.

Hi, I am from the highlands, as far north on mainland Scotland as you can go. Not really prone to fungal infections, and in this case ringworm was brought in with a fresian cow we bought. All the cattle are housed inside, which as you know can be a bit of a breeding ground for disease. We seem...

Thanks for the reply, will have a look to see if I can find some. I could do with him really white, as well as healed up. Thanks

Thanks for the reply. The ringworm is healing well, but wont try the wirebrush with this bull as I am struggling to keep the hair on him as it is. I can't try the iodine either because I am worried about the staining, as for the grub thing....thats a new one on me, but I will give it a try...

Thanks, have been treating the ringworm already with ringworm shampoo, but even though the ringworm is healing, the sores on his back are taking there time, and have used a athletes foot cream treament on the sores, wanted to put on iodine, but because of his colour didnt do it. You seen the red...

Hi, surfing the net and found this site, could do with some help please. My CH bull has got ringworm, but he also has 4 or 5 sores on his back, and me and my dad are having a arguement about if this is related to the ringworm. Dad says that it can't be as its red sores about the size of the top...
