Roll farms: Where/How do you get syringes for giving injections?... Do you need an Rx in order to get them?
Doe went off feed and milk production down by 1/3....possible UTI?

I order mine from Jeffers' Livestock Supply...TSC also carries them but it's much cheaper to buy in bulk.

Thanks Roll..I knew it was something about some anitbiotics nulling eachother out. And that was it!!!
On the calcium thing...I do know that overload or too much calcium on the phosphorus/calcium balance will break down the aborption of Vitamin A...which can lead to respitory fullness and a thick nasal discharge. But you usually see that in kids with coccidia. I actually had a bout of coccidia with some kids and they were full and the fist thing I thought was pneumonia and my vet said lets try Vitamin A first cuz of the absorption issue. And he was right..??
Im just thinking outload as well..and speculating as to Rolls thoughts on too much calcium???

WOW you guys are able to get a lot through TSC that I can't. I asked at mine last night and they told me, "we can't sell them even if we wanted to, due to federal regulations" .... :/Roll farms said:

Just an FYI guys...you can't get them in NH at TSC??? We have to order them through Jeffers. You can go to Maine and get em...but they dont allow it in NH??? Crazy but true...thats why we order them. Kinda silly cuz they sell the vaccines in the store...so how the heck would they expect you to adminster them!!!Roll farms said:

where in Manie can you get them? Rite Aid? Walgreens? Wal~Mart??? ETA: Pet supply store? If so, what one? Also, are there different sizes/types for goats & chickens that I would need. I have a chicken that NEEDS some PenG... have the PenG, but NO syringes!Emmetts Dairy said:Just an FYI guys...you can't get them in NH at TSC??? We have to order them through Jeffers.
