A3B—Lancaster Farming, Saturday, May 16,1981 Ask the B tt VMD Jh o Leon Riegel Woimerinmilk? A reader asks: Does wormer, TBZ and/or Tramisol, given to a nursing doe also worm the young through the milk? How does it affect the milk as far as giving it to dogs, cats and chickens? Does it act as a wormer for them also? Dr. Biegel comments: Wormer that is administered to a nursing doe does not worm the young through the milk. Although a small amount of the wormer given to a doe will come through in the milk, the amount is so small it would be ineffective as a wormer in anything which might drink the milk.

But again, as a wonner, the same applies mainly, quantity of wonner in the milk is too small to affect any parasites in an animal drinking the milk. , Shooting shots A reader asks: When I have to give my cattle IM shots, I generally put them in the neck.

The needle is about an inch long. Dr. Riegel comments: Whether the medication still works depends on the type you’re administering. There are some medications that work just as well or sometimes better if given subcutaneously (just under the skin). On the other hand, there are some medications which must be given deep in tramuscularly. This brings to mind a case 1 had a few years ago.

The medication was barely getting through the skin and definitely not deep m the muscle where it belonged. The irritating substance caused a large bruised area, creating a perfect media for bacteria to grow. ' , , •' > * ‘ ; l ' 6^" Xf , .•-v r ’ * - ' *" „ •' * x ' '* / . * * - -iQi GEHL 72 6-Ft.
