[QUOTE="Fire Sweep Ranch, post: 1516586, member: 18809"] We have not had it for years; this year 6 cases now, of which 3 were calves still on the side of cows! It comes on FAST, and is resistant to treatment. I had the vet out before we left to the National show, 5 treated at that time but 4 were still symptomatic several days later. Vet injected 3 of the 4 in the eye to help clear it up. My new case popped up three days ago, we treated it as soon as we saw it. Her eye is still white, and irritated. I might have to call the vet out again, this strain I am dealing with is persistent. We have almost NO flies (ask Ron, he was here for 9 days watching our place), but there is some stem in the fields we are grazing (it was brush hogged, but some regrowth sent up seeds). No rain for 30 plus days (we are in d-2, severe drought category according to the US Drought Monitor), we are VERY dry and crunchy, so everything is sharp and painful when you step on it! I imagine the cows don't care for it either when they put there heads in it grazing! [/QUOTE]
